Cerebral infarction recurrence is more serious than once. Because clinically, each recurrence of cerebral infarction induces new neurological deficit symptoms, or makes the existing neurological deficit symptoms more serious.
The main reason for the recurrence of cerebral infarction is that the risk factors are not well controlled. First, when blood glucose, blood pressure, and lipids are not well controlled, carotid plaque can dislodge and lead to thrombosis. Unstable carotid plaque may dislodge during hemodynamic changes and move distal to the vessel to form a thrombus.
In addition, if a patient has atrial fibrillation and does not use anticoagulant medications, this may also lead to recurrent cerebral infarctions.
Recovery from recurrent cerebral infarction is relatively difficult. Therefore, it is important for patients to take precautionary measures during the day.
