After cerebral infarction, some patients can recover from swallowing, while some patients may have difficulty in recovering from swallowing.
Dysphagia after cerebral infarction mainly includes two categories, true ball palsy caused by infarction of medulla oblongata and pseudobulbar palsy caused by damage of bilateral cortical medulla oblongata bundles, usually the probability of recovery of true bulbar palsy is small, and the probability of recovery of pseudobulbar palsy is relatively larger.
The recovery of dysphagia after cerebral infarction is related to the extent of the lesion and whether the treatment is timely, if the extent of the lesion is relatively small, timely and effective intervention treatment, the symptoms may gradually recover over time, if the treatment is not timely, it is difficult to restore normal swallowing.
Patients who are unable to swallow after cerebral infarction should go to the hospital in time for active diagnosis and treatment, and under the guidance of the doctor, carry out rehabilitation training to promote the improvement of the condition after the stabilization of the condition.
