Cerebral infarction is a sudden brain disease, and the body's ability to exercise will be affected to a certain extent after the onset. Reasonable rehabilitation exercise is an important way to help patients with cerebral infarction recover. However, many patients with cerebral infarction do not understand rehabilitation exercises, resulting in little effect. So, what rehabilitation exercises can patients with cerebral infarction do? Cerebral infarction, also known as ischemic stroke, refers to the ischemic necrosis or softening of localized brain tissue caused by brain blood supply disorder, ischemia, and hypoxia. In severe cases, it may also cause hemiplegia, Quadriplegia or even death. For some cerebral infarction patients with mild symptoms or those who have recovered well, some low-intensity rehabilitation exercises can help them recover better.

Mobile joints
For patients with cerebral infarction who have been bedridden for a long time, their families must pay attention to massaging their limbs, especially the elbows and leg joints. Do exercises such as extending your knees, flexing and extending your elbows, and bending your fingers to avoid muscle atrophy and joint stiffness. For patients whose condition has improved and stabilized, some joint activity training can also be performed on the bed, such as leg lifting, knee extension, and simple daily training such as eating and dressing.
Standing and walking rehabilitation exercises
? Standing and walking exercises can improve the patient's lower limb mobility. When the patient's condition is stable and he has a certain weight-bearing ability, he can leave the bed to stand and walk with the help of tools. In the early stages of standing independently, a family member must be nearby to supervise you to prevent falls. When training, patients can hold on to surrounding fixed objects or be supported by others to practice standing still, or they can take turns lifting their legs, holding on to the edge of the table, bed, etc. to move slowly.

Limb training
Patients with cerebral infarction should do exercises such as raising, raising and lifting their upper limbs appropriately, which can not only improve muscle pain and degeneration , can also improve the body's blood circulation and eliminate upper limb edema. When lying down, patients can also actively flex and extend their arms and perform exercises such as bringing their fingers together and spreading their fingers. These exercises can enhance the flexibility of the hands and facilitate better recovery in the later period.

Language function exercise
Aphasia is one of the complications of patients with cerebral infarction, which can seriously affect the patient's daily communication.

They can provide simple instruction exercises for patients in listening, speaking, reading, writing, repeating, etc. After the patient's training has achieved results, the intensity of exercise can be gradually increased. Timely and effective rehabilitation training is very helpful for patients' recovery, but attention must be paid to intensity control and strenuous exercise should be avoided as much as possible.
