Treatment of sequelae of cerebral infarction

Cerebral infarction is a disease related to the brain, which is very harmful to our human body. Many people are very afraid of cerebral infarction, not only because of its severity, but also partly because of the sequelae of cerebral infarction. There are many sequelae of cerebral infarction, and these sequelae can cause great harm to the patient's body, so the treatment of sequelae of cerebral infarction is so important.

There are many treatments for the sequelae of cerebral infarction, but not all patients' sequelae can be cured in a short period of time. This is also related to the physical fitness of the patients. Because of this, many patients with cerebral infarction are still looking for various treatments. So, let’s introduce in detail the treatment methods for the sequelae of cerebral infarction.

Sequelae of cerebral infarction refer to the existence of hemiplegia, language disorders, facial paralysis and other symptoms one year after the onset of cerebral infarction. This period is also called the sequelae period of cerebral infarction. Compared with the recovery period, the recovery speed and degree are slower. The main sequelae of cerebral infarction include hemiplegia (hemiplegia), hemilimb disorder, limb numbness, hemianopsia, and aphasia.

If there are still limb and language disorders one year after the onset of cerebral infarction, it is considered a sequela of cerebral infarction. The focus of treatment in the sequelae period is to prevent the recurrence of cerebral infarction and improve symptoms. Some patients are able to take medication consistently within one year of onset, but ignore reliable medication after one year; some patients think that as long as they keep exercising and control their diet, it doesn’t matter whether they take medication or not. Relying solely on exercise and diet adjustment is primary prevention, and is a disease prevention measure for people who have not yet suffered cerebral infarction but have risk factors. For patients who have already suffered a cerebral infarction, in order to prevent recurrence and continue to improve symptoms so that the condition continues to develop in a positive direction, in addition to paying attention to a light diet, functional exercise, and controlling blood pressure and blood lipids, the most important thing is to use reliable medications to continuously prevent and treat the causes of cerebral infarction. The five-year recurrence rate of cerebral infarction is over 30%. Once a recurrence occurs, the patient and his family will face a heavier mental and economic burden. Therefore, it is better to prevent it before it occurs than to treat it after it occurs. Cerebral infarction is a chronic disease, and it is more common in the elderly around 60 years old. The focus of medication selection, in addition to the targeted preventive and therapeutic effects on the causes of cerebral infarction such as arteriosclerosis, should also have the advantages of long-term effectiveness, safety, no drug resistance, reasonable dosage form and small dosage. This is the best secondary prevention medication suitable for long-term use by middle-aged and elderly patients with cerebral infarction. The clinical key drugs that can be developed for secondary prevention are the first choice medications for the recovery and sequelae periods of cerebral infarction.

Through the above detailed introduction to the treatment methods for sequelae of cerebral infarction, I believe most people should have some understanding of it. Through this understanding, we will find that there are still many sequelae of cerebral infarction, so our patients must not only receive timely treatment, but also pay attention to many aspects of life. The most important thing is to pay attention to diet and exercise.
