Patients usually stumble when walking, feel dizzy, feel nausea and vomiting, and have numbness in the limbs. In severe cases, they may even fall into a coma. Once this disease is discovered, it needs timely treatment, strict diet control and active rehabilitation training, and family members should also provide careful care and attention.

1. Concept

Cerebellar infarction is a disease that occurs in the head, and the main causes are vertebral-basilar artery abnormalities and cardiogenic emboli.

The diagnosis of this disease is mainly based on CT or MRI examination.

5. Treatment

2. The comprehensive treatment of general cerebellar infarction should include effective drug therapy, light diet adjustment, targeted rehabilitation training, risk factor control, effective and accurate home care, etc.

6. Rehabilitation and nursing methods for cerebellar infarction
