6. Stroke: A Life-Threatening Medical Emergency
A stroke occurs when the blood supply to a part of the brain is interrupted or reduced, depriving brain cells of oxygen and nutrients. This can cause brain cells to die, resulting in various symptoms, including tremors.
Tremors caused by a stroke can affect different parts of the body, depending on the region of the brain that has been damaged. These tremors can be temporary or permanent, and their severity can vary widely.
Other symptoms of a stroke include sudden numbness or weakness in the face, arm, or leg (usually on one side of the body), confusion, trouble speaking or understanding speech, sudden vision problems, dizziness, and severe headache.
Stroke is a medical emergency that requires immediate attention. If you or someone around you is experiencing symptoms of a stroke, call emergency services right away. Prompt treatment is crucial for minimizing brain damage and improving the chances of recovery. (6)
