Left temporal lobe infarction

The structure of the human brain is like a precision instrument, containing multiple complex parts, each of which is responsible for directing certain functions of the human body. The left parietal lobe in our brain is responsible for the left side of the brain and is closely related to language, consciousness, mathematical analysis, etc. When a stroke occurs, the patient often experiences symptoms such as vomiting, aphasia, tinnitus, dizziness, and difficulty walking. Timely treatment is required, otherwise it is likely to leave many sequelae.

1. Concept

Left temporal lobe infarction is a type of lacunar infarction. The disease site is located in the left temporal lobe of the cerebrum. It is a type of lesion caused by occlusion of tiny arteries deep in the brain on the basis of hypertension and arterial infarction, leading to ischemic softening of brain tissue. The lesion size is generally 2-20 mm, with 2-4 mm being the most common.

2. Symptoms

Dizziness, nausea, tinnitus, tightness behind the ears, blurred vision, and some may also have impaired speech and mental symptoms.

3. Causes

It is generally related to diseases such as hypertension, coronary heart disease, diabetes, overweight, and hyperlipidemia.

IV. Hazards

1. It is a relatively mild case of cerebral infarction. If the infarction is small and the number is small, it can sometimes be recovered with timely treatment.

2. For some patients, if the disease is not cured in time, it may cause serious problems in speaking, hearing, writing, etc.

5. Diagnosis

MRI confirmed the presence of cerebral infarction in the left temporal lobe.

6. Treatment

1. Treatment mainly focuses on improving circulation, nourishing nerves, preventing complications, controlling risk factors, rehabilitation training, etc.

2. Dilate blood vessels, nourish nerves, promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis, lower blood lipids and eat a low-fat diet, pay attention to functional exercises, and appropriately participate in physical activities within your ability.

3. Patients are advised to pay attention to controlling blood pressure, blood sugar, blood lipids and other factors. If they have paralyzed limbs, they should practice stretching and flexion more often. They can also perform limb massage, passive activities, and sit-up, stand-up, and walking exercises. Communicate with people more often, practice your language skills, and proceed step by step.

4. Pay attention to rest and avoid fatigue, which will help recovery.

VII. Prevention

In your daily diet, eat less salt and more vinegar, keep exercising, don't smoke and drink less, keep a happy mood and avoid getting angry. In normal times, we should actively treat hypertension, diabetes, and coronary heart disease, maintain an optimistic and open-minded attitude towards life, and avoid emotional excitement and excessive fatigue. Eat more light food and avoid greasy and spicy food. Eat more green vegetables. Maintain a regular lifestyle.
