Patients with cerebral infarction who have slurred speech and big tongue are mainly treated with medication and rehabilitation.
1. Drug treatment: intravenous thrombolysis with alteplase can be given in acute stage; anti-platelet drugs such as clopidogrel and aspirin, plaque stabilizing drugs such as atorvastatin and resuvastatin, as well as drugs such as butylphthalide and cytarabine to improve the circulation and promote the recovery of neurological function can be given routinely.
2. Rehabilitation therapy: through standardized language training, such as doing tongue stretching and cheek puffing, issuing different a, i, u sounds, and repeating each time for three to five times repeatedly for training; it is also possible to use the mouth shape method to demonstrate the mouth shape to the patient, so that he or she can carefully observe the change of the mouth shape of each sound, and correct the incorrect mouth shape for the correct pronunciation of the training, and so on.
Patients with cerebral infarction should seek medical treatment in time and need long time rehabilitation treatment in the later stage.
Drugs need to be used under the guidance of a physician, do not blindly take on their own.
