Health Warning Signs
-
Stroke Signs
-
Go to the emergency room or call your doctor when you experience temporary paralysis, weakness, burning pains, tingling, confusion and slurred speech. These are early warning signs of a stroke. Seeking treatment early may prevent permanent brain damage or save your life.
Black Tarry Stool
-
Black stools could indicate an ulcer hemorrhage of your stomach or intestine. When this occurs, it's crucial to stop the bleeding and cross off cancer as a cause. Food can change your stool's color, but tarry black stool can indicate bleeding.
Lump in Breasts
-
Women should regularly check their breast for lumps. A lump in a women's breast could indicate breast cancer.
Meningitis Signs
-
Vomiting with a severe headache, high fever and stiff neck possibly indicates meningitis. Meningitis is membrane inflammation that covers the spinal cord and brain. A viral or bacterial infection may cause meningitis.
Lump in Testicles
-
Men should check themselves for lumps in the testicles with or without a tiny lump in the groin area. A lump in the testicles could indicate testicular cancer.
