If you experience sudden, crushing chest pain that spreads to your left arm, neck, or jaw, seek immediate medical help.

• Possible sign: Stroke

Any sudden numbness, weakness, or difficulty speaking can be an early warning of a stroke.

• Possible sign: Kidney or colon disorder

Visible blood or unusual discolouration in your urine or stool should never be ignored, it could point to an internal issue.

4. Unexplained weight loss

• Possible signs: Diabetes, hyperthyroidism, or cancer
