Patient's question:
My father has been diagnosed with cerebral arteritis, and he has been experiencing headaches for these past few days. He has just undergone surgery and is currently in the recovery phase. We all want to help him regain strength so that he can slow down the pace of his full recovery. I have consulted various doctors and would like to know what dietary recommendations are there for the rehabilitation period of cerebral arteritis?Doctor's answer:
At the beginning of the surgery, it is advisable to avoid certain foods. Do not eat spicy or irritating foods, such as leeks, and avoid foods that may trigger outbreaks, such as seafood. Also, avoid excessively greasy foods. If the disease has progressed to a later stage, it is necessary to enhance nutrient intake, reduce the body's resistance, and consume foods that replenish qi during bowel movements, such as animal liver. Fish soup and bone broth can also be consumed. It is important to persist in functional exercises.
