How long can you live with a stroke?

  The length of survival for stroke, also known as stroke, is closely related to the site of the lesion, size of the lesion, comorbidities, and frequency of recurrence, and therefore cannot be generalized.  Stroke can be fatal in severe cases if the lesion is at a significant site, such as vertebrobasilar artery thrombosis and internal carotid artery occlusive cerebral infarction, and death may occur within days. Those with severe symptoms are prone to comorbid infections, fever, upper gastrointestinal bleeding, epilepsy, deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism, some of which are prone to recurrent attacks, and recovery time is indeterminate and varies from person to person. If the lesion is small and the symptoms are mild, the recovery is also relatively good and does not even affect normal life expectancy.  Stroke should pay attention to controlling risk factors and improving bad habits. After discharge from the hospital, one should follow the medical advice to take medication on time and actively rehabilitate, which plays an important role in improving the quality of life and reducing recurrence.
