How long can an elderly person live with a cerebral hemorrhage?

The physical constitution of the elderly is relatively poor, and their blood vessels are relatively thin. Especially if an accident occurs in the blood vessels in the brain, it may cause cerebral hemorrhage, which has a great impact on the life safety of the elderly. When the elderly have cerebral hemorrhage, they should be treated in time and strengthened in daily life. As for how long the elderly can survive after a cerebral hemorrhage, this is closely related to the patient's condition and the physical constitution of the elderly.

1. Stabilize blood pressure.

Hypertension must be detected early and treated promptly, with regular check-ups and, once confirmed, medication should be taken consistently to lower and stabilize blood pressure and prevent rebound and excessive fluctuations. 2. Regulate emotions.

Stay optimistic and avoid getting too excited. Keep your mind calm, reduce worries, don't be too sad or happy, be indifferent to fame and fortune, and be content with what you have. 3. Quit smoking and drinking.

Both alcohol and cigarettes can cause blood vessel constriction, increase heart rate, raise blood pressure, and accelerate arteriosclerosis. People with hypertension, coronary heart disease, and cerebral arteriosclerosis should especially quit smoking and drinking.

Pay attention to a low-fat, low-salt and low-sugar diet. Eat less animal brains and offal, and eat more vegetables, fruits, and soy products, with appropriate amounts of lean meat, fish, and eggs. 5. Avoid fatigue,

Do not overwork yourself with physical or mental labor, as overload can induce cerebral hemorrhage. 6. Prevent constipation.

Dry and hard stools and straining during defecation not only increase abdominal pressure, but also blood pressure and intracranial pressure, which can easily rupture fragile small blood vessels and cause cerebral hemorrhage. To prevent constipation, eat more fiber-rich foods, such as green vegetables, celery, leeks and fruits. Appropriate exercise and self-care abdominal massage before getting up in the morning, or appropriate medications such as Ma Ren Wan, honey taken orally, enema, and glycerin for external use; can effectively prevent and treat constipation.

When squatting to defecate, the blood vessels in the lower limbs will become severely bent. In addition, holding your breath while defecating can increase intra-abdominal pressure, which can raise blood pressure and lead to the possibility of cerebrovascular accident. If you sit on the toilet, the femoral artery is bent, but the bending angle is about 90 degrees, and the blood can remain smooth as usual. At the same time, the weight of the whole body is borne by the arms. Even though the time is a little longer, the lower limbs will not feel strained. It can make people feel at ease, will not cause high blood pressure, and can reduce the chance of cerebral stroke.
