The main cause of hemiplegia in the elderly is stroke, which is a general term for acute cerebrovascular diseases in traditional Chinese medicine.
You must seek medical attention in time in the acute stage of stroke, so as not to miss the best treatment opportunity; After entering the recovery period of stroke, we should also pay close attention to treatment. This period is a critical period for the treatment of hemiplegia. Patients should establish confidence in treatment, actively cooperate with doctors for treatment, and strive to restore symptoms to the best degree.
If the treatment is started after the sequela period, the treatment effect is usually not good.
In addition, patients should also strengthen training, actively carry out functional training, and try their best to move their limbs to the maximum range that patients can bear;
If patients can't take the initiative to exercise, they can also go to the rehabilitation department for passive function training, including upper limbs, lower limbs and language function training.
Patients' families should also pay attention to nursing, turn over and pat the back of hemiplegic patients regularly to prevent bedsores.
