Patient's question:
My parents fainted at home at the beginning of this year and were sent to the hospital. After treatment, they were discharged. The doctor said it was a stroke. They stayed in the hospital for a period of time and then left. Now they are recovering at home and are doing very well. I want to ask, what are the risks of thrombolysis for stroke?Doctor's answer:
For patients with cerebral infarction, the best treatment plan in the short term after onset is to administer thrombolytic therapy. The main risk after thrombolytic therapy is abnormal coagulation function, which may lead to intracranial hemorrhage, gastrointestinal bleeding, and the recurrence of subcutaneous ecchymosis. The patient is currently recovering well and has not shown any signs of recurrence of the condition, so there is no need to worry. Daily diet should focus on maintaining a low-sugar, low-salt, and low-fat diet, avoiding spicy and greasy foods, and eating more fruits and vegetables. Appropriate physical function exercises should be carried out.
