Research published in the European Heart Journal in 2021 shows that heavy physical activity at one time can increase the risk of hemorrhagic stroke, especially intracerebral bleeding.
This condition occurs due to rupture of arteries in the brain.
Intracerebral hemorrhage often appears suddenly and without warning.
People affected by intracerebral hemorrhage will experience difficulty speaking, body weakness, paralysis in certain parts of the body, difficulty walking, irregular breathing, fainting, or coma.
Apart from heavy physical activity, this research also states that other factors that cause strokes are anger or emotional disturbances.
National University of Ireland epidemiologist Andrew Smyth told Today that physical activity or heavy exercise, anger and emotional disturbances have the potential to cause stroke.
The reason is, these three things have the potential to trigger an increase in heart rate, blood pressure, and hormonal changes that change blood flow, such as in the brain.

That is why it is important to manage anger and emotional management so that it does not become a trigger factor for a stroke.
Everyone should also do physical activity or exercise with the right intensity and portion according to the doctor’s recommendations.
However, not all episodes of anger, emotional disturbance, or heavy physical activity can cause a stroke.
Strokes can occur due to diet, obesity, high cholesterol, and hereditary or genetic factors.
