How many years can a patient with cerebral infarction live?

The harm of cerebral infarction is relatively large, especially for middle-aged and elderly people, who are easily affected by this disease. The patient's vitality depends on his condition and the daily care of the patient.

1. For cerebral infarction, as long as it can be discovered in the early stage of the disease and symptomatic and causal treatment is carried out, the patient can be completely freed from the torture caused by the disease. In other words, cerebral infarction is generally not life-threatening. However, the correct treatment plan for cerebral infarction should be chosen. Otherwise, improper treatment will cause the patient to lose his precious life or cause some other complications.

2. Patients and their families should pay attention that since cerebrovascular disease has the characteristic of acute onset, treatment must be carried out every minute and every second. Therefore, treatment at this time is most effective for many patients. It may be effective for some patients within 3 to 6 hours, and blocked blood vessels can be reopened, brain tissue function will not be seriously damaged, and there are few sequelae. Therefore, for cerebral infarction, the early or late treatment is the key to determine the prognosis.

3. Therefore, patients are required to continue using medications for treatment in normal times, which is also the focus of treatment to prevent recurrence and improve symptoms. When patients choose medications, in addition to drugs that are targeted at the causes of cerebral infarction, patients should also choose some drugs that are long-acting, safe, and have no drug resistance, and have relatively small dosages. This way, there will not be major side effects after long-term use, and it can also play a good role in treating the sequelae of cerebral infarction.

4. In addition to drug treatment, patients should also pay attention to their eating habits, because a good eating habit is very helpful for the patient's recovery. For example, you should eat more low-salt and low-fat foods, avoid eating greasy foods, eat more vegetables and fruits, such as fungus, mushrooms, apples, etc., and you can also eat more cereals, but you must avoid smoking and drinking. Only if patients develop good living habits will it be beneficial to their recovery.

5. Once a patient is found to be ill, he or she must be taken very good care of. Remember not to allow the cerebral infarction to worsen due to family members' reasons. Patients in the recovery period can also perform appropriate physical exercises, which is conducive to recovery and can also serve as an auxiliary treatment for cerebral infarction.
