Patient's question:
Mother had an MRI and found mild cerebral infarction. She is currently receiving intravenous fluids. There is a bending pain on the right side of her brain. Now, she doesn't know if this bending pain is related to the cerebral infarction. If it is, what medication can help relieve the pain?Doctor's answer:
Mild cerebral infarction requires timely treatment measures to prevent further deterioration. First, in terms of diet, it is important to understand that high-fat and high-calorie foods should be avoided, as well as greasy, sweet, and rich foods that are too salty and may exacerbate fire and phlegm. Raw, cold, and spicy foods should also be avoided, as well as smoking and drug use. Additionally, traditional Chinese medicine and herbal remedies can be used to stabilize the condition. Patients facing cerebral infarction should actively undergo thorough examinations and treatment, without avoiding medical visits. If the cerebral infarction does not improve with treatment, it is important to promptly switch to a new treatment plan.
