Why Stroke Awareness Matters
Every year, thousands of people in Chandigarh, Panchkula, and Ambala experience a stroke often without warning. The truth is: a stroke can happen in minutes, but quick recognition and action can save a life
Dr. Anurag Lamba, leading neurologist, emphasizes that most patients lose precious time because families don’t know the early signs. The earlier you act, the better the recovery chances.

To make it simple, remember FAST:
- F – Face drooping: One side of the face may look uneven.
- A – Arm weakness: Difficulty lifting one or both arms.
