How to know if you're having a stoke? Physician Dr Kunal Sood shares the easiest way to recognise the warning signs

Stroke symptoms appear suddenly; immediate medical attention improves recovery outcomes.

Dr Kunal Sood recommends the acronym BEFAST to recognize stroke warning signs.

BEFAST stands for Balance, Eyes, Face, Arms, Speech, and Time.

Balance signs include sudden trouble walking or new unsteadiness.

Time is crucial: note when symptoms started and seek prompt treatment.
