Whether a stroke in the elderly can be cured is related to whether the treatment is timely, the severity of the disease and the physical condition of the patient. Generally speaking, if the condition is mild and the treatment is timely, it is possible to be cured. On the contrary, it is easy to have after-effects. 1. Whether the treatment is timely or not: in the acute stage of stroke, if the treatment is early, it is possible to return to normal; otherwise, delayed treatment may leave sequelae. 2. Related to the severity of the disease: if the condition of mild stroke, such as cavernous cerebral infarction, is treated in time, it is possible to be cured. On the contrary, such as brainstem infarction or brainstem hemorrhage, etc., the sequelae of stroke may occur, and even endanger the patient’s life. 3. Related to the patient’s physical condition: if the patient’s resistance is good and not accompanied by underlying diseases, the stroke may be cured. If the patient is older, or combined with diabetes, heart disease and other diseases, there is a possibility that it will not be cured. Older people who have a stroke should be treated in time and actively exercise so as not to leave sequelae of cerebrovascular disease.
