This “normal” headache might be the only warning before a stroke!
While most headaches are benign, in rare instances, they can signal serious cardiovascular events like heart attacks or strokes. Cardiac cephalalgia, a headache triggered by reduced blood flow to the heart, presents with severe pain and atypical symptoms. Sudden, intense headaches, especially with neurological symptoms, may indicate a stroke, necessitating immediate medical attention.
