Previous treatment and outcomes: Visited the hospital for blood tests, and the results showed no abnormalities in the blood.
Doctor's answer:
Generally, most stroke patients have a history of high blood pressure, so it is recommended to measure blood pressure as a baseline. If the blood pressure is too high and accompanied by the aforementioned symptoms, it is necessary to prevent further deterioration of the stroke. The symptoms of stroke include unclear speech and difficulty rolling the tongue. Therefore, it is advised that the patient first take antihypertensive medication to stabilize blood pressure. Additionally, it is important to prevent excessive emotional fluctuations to avoid another stroke. In addition to treatment, attention should be paid to maintaining sleep, as sufficient sleep can help you recover more quickly from the illness.
