Stroke is the most common cause of disabilities in adults. We have been talking about the acronym BEFAST and how it can be used to identify stroke in people early and get appropriate treatment. This early and timely treatment from a neurologist or in extreme cases a neurosurgeon can help a great deal, and the patient can even get cured fully. 

The F in BEFAST stands for facial symmetry or facial weakness. Usually, our face is symmetrical, but when one side of the face or mouth seems to droop and it, in turn, affects the patient’s speech, it should be considered a symptom of stroke. The patient should immediately consult the specialist, and for this, you can use the neurologist near me option.
