Overview
It is critical to obtain a detailed and focused history in patient with intracerebral hemorrhage. History of gradual onset of symptoms, Vomiting, hypertension, lipid disorders, smoking, antiplatlete/anticoagulation medication, or illicit drug use, dementia, liver, and chronic kidney disease may suggest intracerebral hemorrhage as one of the initial differential diagnosis..[1][2][3][4][5][6]

Symptoms
Non specific symptoms of intracerebral hemorrhage may include:[5][6]
