Patients with acute cerebral infarction are mainly treated with western medicine, and patients with cerebral infarction in recovery stage can be treated with Chinese medicine. Acute cerebral infarction patients are mainly treated with thrombolytic therapy in western medicine. Patients recovering from cerebral infarction belong to “stroke” in traditional Chinese medicine, which is caused by wind and phlegm entering into the collaterals, the blood following the qi, running across the meridians, and stagnating the cerebral veins. Wind-yang upward disturbance (liver fire, upward disturbance of the head and face and other parts of the body) is manifested as hemiplegia (one side of the limbs can not move at will), skin unkindness, crooked mouth and tongue, speech, or strong tongue, irritability, headache, dizziness, red face and eyes, bitter mouth and dry throat, red urine, dry stools, etc., the treatment of tianmaji hokutian drink. Wind-phlegm obstruction manifesting as skin unkindness, or even paralysis, crooked mouth and tongue, unfavorable speech, or spoken or unspoken words, dizziness and vertigo, etc., treatment with Semixia and Atractylodis Macrocephalae Tianma Tang. Qi deficiency and blood stasis manifests as paralysis, unkindness of the skin, crooked mouth and tongue, unfavorable speech, or spoken or unspoken words, lack of color, shortness of breath and fatigue, salivation at the corners of the mouth (drooling), spontaneous sweating (involuntary sweating during the daytime, which is aggravated by the slightest movement), palpitations (rapid heartbeat, often accompanied by panic), and loose stools (thin, unformed feces), etc. For the treatment of this condition, use Nourishing Yang Returning Five Soups. Both Western medicine and Chinese medicine can have certain therapeutic effects on patients with cerebral infarction. If you have a related condition, it is recommended to treat it under the guidance of a professional physician, and not to blindly use medication on your own.
