Patient's question:
Recently, I don't know why I can't sleep, which greatly affects my work efficiency. My friend recommended that I see a neurologist. Is a cerebral infarction the same as a cerebral thrombosis?Doctor's answer:
According to the symptoms you described, clinical diagnosis of cerebral infarction and cerebral thrombosis is the same disease, but the names of the diseases are different. When cerebral thrombosis forms, it will cause the brain to reappear symptoms of infarction. When cerebral thrombosis forms, the main and most common symptoms that appear in clinical diagnosis include dizziness, headache, and may also include hemiplegia or hemisensory disturbance. Additionally, symptoms of cerebral edema in the middle cerebral artery or anterior cerebral artery may also occur. If the disease is detected in a timely manner and active treatment is provided at the local hospital, it is generally possible to alleviate the condition.
