Some risk factors, like age or family history, cannot be changed. For instance, men are three times as likely as women to have a stroke. However, there are some risk factors you can change. If you suspect that someone has had a stroke, get immediate emergency medical treatment. Call 911 or your local emergency medical service immediately if you have any reason to suspect even a small stroke.
Immediate treatment can make a huge difference.
