6 Disease Symptoms You Should Never Ignore

A Numbing Sensation – a stroke or sitting too long?

Numbness may just be a sign that you sat on your foot or arm for too long, however if you have this sensation only on one side of your body or your face, for no apparent reason, usually accompanied with sudden confusion, blurred vision, or difficulty in speaking, it may be an indication that you’re having a stroke. In this situation, it is imperative that you seek medical treatment right away and call 911.  

As Dr. Edward C. Jauch, M.D., from the Medical University of South Carolina, says, if you think you might be having a stroke, “Wait-and-see should not be a part of the decision process.”
