Patient's question:
I've been having frequent dizziness and poor appetite recently, and my mental state isn't great either. The hospital check-up revealed a blood-related issue. I'm wondering which department I should go to if I need to check for carotid artery inflammation?Doctor's answer:
The neck is uncomfortable again. If you want to do a carotid arteritis examination, you can generally do a color Doppler ultrasound of the neck to understand and observe the blood flow of the neck arteries. You can also do a magnetic resonance imaging examination to understand if there is a recurrence of carotid stenosis. Oral blood-activating and blood-removing drugs can be taken for treatment. At the same time, you should also pay attention to observing if there is a recurrence of a foreign body sensation in the throat.
