Some strokes can heal on their own, such as transient cerebral arterial hypoperfusion, a temporary brain dysfunction caused by a transient blockage of blood flow to a part of the brain. Ischemic episodes are brief, usually lasting only a few minutes, with no sudden onset of symptoms, similar to a stroke, but the symptoms don’t last long, and although they can last up to 24 hours, most disappear within an hour. Common symptoms include numbness or weakness in the upper and lower extremities of the face, especially on one side of the body, blurred consciousness or difficulty speaking or understanding, blurred vision in one or both eyes, difficulty walking, dizziness, or disorders of balance supply. Transient cerebral hypoperfusion may be a warning sign that an ischemic stroke is about to occur. A history of transient cerebral hypoperfusion is associated with a 10-fold higher risk of stroke than a history of no episodes of the disease, and recognizing and identifying its causes can help prevent strokes from occurring.
