When an 80 year old has a cerebral infarction, some of them can regain their speaking function, but some of them will be permanently left with after-effects.
The brain tissue of cerebral infarction cannot be recovered, that is, there is no way to regenerate the neurons once they are necrotic, and they can only be replaced by other neurons to take over this part of the function. Some people can recover part of their motor and sensory functions with better rehabilitation, but some people will be left with permanent sequelae.
Only a small percentage of 80-year-olds with cerebral infarction who can’t speak can recover. This is because the neurological compensatory function of the elderly is relatively poor, but active rehabilitation will still progress on the original basis. It is necessary to go to the rehabilitation department for evaluation and targeted intensive training.
Also note that after a cerebral infarction, it is necessary to prevent another cerebral infarction and reduce the risk of recurrence of stroke by actively controlling the risk factors of stroke, such as the use of antiplatelet aggregation drugs aspirin, clopidogrel and so on.
After the 80-year-old man cerebral infarction need to actively review, cooperate with the doctor to follow up, and rehabilitation training, if any discomfort is recommended as soon as possible to consult a doctor. The above medication should be used in accordance with the doctor’s prescription.
