What causes cerebral infarction and what habits can cause cerebral infarction?

Cerebral infarction is a fairly common brain disease, which can cause great harm to the patient himself. Clarifying the causative factors of cerebral infarction will help to do a good job in daily prevention. So what are the causes of cerebral infarction?

1. Hypertension and diabetes:

The risk of cerebral infarction in patients with hypertension is 7 times higher than that in normal people. Therefore, we should pay attention to keeping blood pressure within the normal range to avoid cerebral infarction. The risk of cerebral infarction in diabetic patients is also significantly higher than that in non-diabetic patients.

2. Irregular lifestyle:

In addition, an irregular lifestyle, such as staying up late, irregular or unreasonable diet, and excessive work pressure can also lead to cerebral infarction. Sometimes viruses invading cerebral blood vessels may also cause cerebral infarction.

3. Smoking and drinking:

Clinical studies have shown that more than 50% of patients with cerebral infarction have a history of long-term smoking and drinking. Because smoking can cause an increase in the lipid and fibrinogen levels in the blood, and increase blood viscosity. Drinking alcohol will increase the alcohol content in the blood, causing cerebral vasoconstriction and spasm.
