Sequelae of cerebral hemorrhage

Cerebral hemorrhage is what people often call cerebral hemorrhage. This disease mainly refers to the phenomenon of bleeding in people's brain, rather than a disease caused by external force. It can be said that there are still quite a few patients with this disease. There are many causes of this disease, mainly due to lesions in people's cerebral blood vessels. Most of them are related to high blood lipids, smoking, etc. Relatively speaking, many patients die from this disease in the early stages.

Of course, this disease can be cured, but even after it is cured, different sequelae will appear to varying degrees. The phenomenon of this sequelae also varies from person to person. Some patients have mild sequelae while others have severe ones. So today let’s talk about the sequelae of cerebral hemorrhage.

Symptoms of sequelae of cerebral hemorrhage. The most common sequelae of cerebral hemorrhage is hemiplegia, which is manifested as decreased muscle strength, difficulty in movement or complete inability to move the limbs on one side, often accompanied by sensory impairment of the limbs on the same side, such as decreased or complete loss of sensation of cold, heat, pain, etc. Sometimes it is accompanied by ipsilateral visual field loss. The common sequelae of cerebral hemorrhage mainly manifest in three aspects.

1) Mental and intellectual disorders: Large-scale or repeatedly recurring cerebral hemorrhage accidents may leave mental and intellectual disorders, such as personality changes, pessimism, depression, mental depression, irritability, etc.

2) Aphasia: Aphasia caused by sequelae of cerebral hemorrhage mainly includes three aspects:

1. Motor aphasia (Broca's aphasia) is characterized by the patient being able to understand what others say but unable to express his or her own ideas. The lesion involves the Broca area of ​​the dominant hemisphere and the corresponding subcortical white matter areas;

2. Sensory aphasia (Wernicke's aphasia) has no language expression disorder, but the patient cannot understand what others say, nor what he says. The patient answers questions irrelevantly and talks to himself. The lesion involves the Wernicke area of ​​the dominant hemisphere.

3. Anomia is manifested as being able to tell the purpose of an object when seeing it, but not being able to name it. The lesions involve the posterior part of the middle temporal gyrus of the dominant hemisphere or the temporo-occipital junction.

3) Other symptoms Other symptoms of sequelae of cerebral hemorrhage include: headache, dizziness, nausea, insomnia, nightmares, inattention, tinnitus, blurred vision, sweating, palpitations, unsteady steps, neck pain, fatigue, weakness, loss of appetite, memory loss, dementia, depression, etc.

For patients with sequelae of cerebral hemorrhage, their families should give great care, especially those with mental sequelae. In daily life, family members should try their best to keep the patients in a good mood. Some patients have problems taking care of themselves after suffering from sequelae, and their family members also need more care and attention at this time.
