Stroke symptoms typically last more than 24 hours, and may or may not resolve, even with therapy. Some stroke symptoms may never resolve or get better. Symptoms can begin to resolve in about 1 to 5 minutes, which is typical, but some may take about 24 hours to resolve.

I'm curious and a bit concerned about my left upper eyelid that keeps pulsating. It's been going on daily for about 6 months now. It comes and goes within minutes, but it's pretty much a daily occurrence. Its not really causing any problems, but I just wanted to check if this is something to worry about or if it's just a harmless twitch.

I've been dealing with dizziness for a while now, like it started some years ago and it's happening again. I'm really worried about why this dizziness keeps coming back. Do you think it could be something serious? What should I do to figure out what's going on?

Recurring dizziness may indicate an underlying condition, such as inner ear problems (e.g., benign paroxysmal positional vertigo), migraines, or vestibular issues; consider consulting an ear, nose, and throat (ENT) specialist or a neurologist to rule out any underlying conditions and develop a treatment plan to manage your symptoms.
