5Sudden Weakness
Weakness is a common symptom associated with stroke. This symptom is usually felt on the arm, leg or both. These parts suddenly go weak, making it difficult to engage in mobile activities. With your weak muscle, how well you can move your body is affected. What determines the part of the body that goes numb and weak is where the stroke occurs. If your stroke attack is on the left hemisphere of your brain, the opposite side (that is the right) of your body will be affected and become weak. This symptom might not quickly be associated with stroke because so many factors could lead to you being weak, but at the inception of stroke, you will experience a mild weakness that increases gradually.
