\u201cThe stress, smoking, massive spread of diabetes, malnourishment and arterial hypertension are some of factors why cases are on the rise,\u201d he explains.<\/p>\n
Often times patients underestimate stroke signs and go to the hospital when it\u2019s too late.<\/p>\n
\u201cWithin 60 minutes would be the ideal time. Chest pain is the first sign, followed by numbness of the left or right arm and tightness in the throat. But one too many times, patients are late,\u201d the doctor tells.<\/p>\n
