Which symptom is associated with ischemic stroke due to internal carotid artery injury?

Hemiplegia is a significant symptom associated with ischemic stroke caused by internal carotid artery injury. When an ischemic stroke occurs, it results from a blockage in the blood supply to part of the brain, leading to damage in the brain tissue. This damage can disrupt normal motor function and control, often resulting in hemiplegia, which is characterized by paralysis or weakness on one side of the body. This is due to the particular areas of the brain affected by the ischemic process, including those areas responsible for motor control.

In the context of a stroke, the internal carotid artery is a major supplier of blood to the brain, and any injury or blockage can critically impair blood flow. When this happens, depending on the region affected, patients may exhibit focal neurological deficits, one of the most common being hemiplegia.

While nausea, fever, and headache can occur in various medical conditions, they are not directly indicative of ischemic stroke resulting from internal carotid artery issues. Nausea may arise from a variety of other factors such as medications or other systemic issues. Fever is typically not a direct consequence of a stroke, and headaches, while they can accompany strokes, are not specific to ischemic strokes resulting from carotid
