What should I do if I find out I have a cerebral infarction?

Cerebral infarction should be treated according to doctor’s prescription in time, including medication, surgery, rehabilitation and so on.
1. Drug treatment: Thrombolytic drugs such as alteplase can be used within 6 hours of the onset of the disease, and anti-platelet aggregation drugs such as aspirin and plaque stabilizing drugs such as atorvastatin can be given after 24 hours of failure to dissolve the thrombus or after dissolving the thrombus, and neuroprotective and circulation-improving drugs such as edaravone and butylphthalide can be given at the same time.
2. Surgical treatment: If there is a responsible large vessel lesion, surgical treatment such as mechanical thrombus extraction and stent implantation can also be taken.
3. Rehabilitation therapy: after the condition is stabilized, the patient should be treated with limb function rehabilitation therapy, which can assist the recovery of neurological function, such as acupuncture and moxibustion.
Cerebral infarction patients are recommended to seek timely medical treatment, standardized treatment, do not blindly self-medication, so as not to delay the condition.
