A stroke that overtakes a person in the early years of life is a rarity. In an interview with Life, neurologist Artem Baryshev said that the risk of such a violation is associated with clamping of a vessel that provides blood supply to the brain. In youth, such clamping can be due to several reasons.
“For a young and relatively healthy person, it is rather difficult to get a occluded vessel, and there must be certain prerequisites for this: most often, an anatomical anomaly in the vessel, its pathological narrowing or tortuosity, becomes such a cause,” the expert explained.
According to the doctor, in the presence of the above violation, symptoms such as headaches, a feeling of fullness or throbbing in the head may occur. So, Baryshev noted, the development of a stroke is associated with the formation of blood clots. Often, these blood clots first appear in the legs, and when separated, they enter the bloodstream and are transported with it to the vessels of other parts of the body.
“Most often, their manifestation is numbness of the limbs, chest pain, heart palpitations or swelling of the legs,” the specialist warned.
In addition, Baryshev said that strokes in young people also contribute to aneurysms or blood clotting disorders.
