What are the risks of having a stroke and not going to the hospital?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Go to the hospital!: All people with a stroke should go to the hospital. If they do not go, it is likely the cause of the stroke will not be addressed, and normally that leads to another stroke or the original stroke becoming much worse.
