Cerebral vascular diseases occur due to reasons such as blockage of brain vessels with clots, bleeding, or temporary occlusion and opening, and are one of the most common neurological diseases. It can cause clinical symptoms such as permanent limb paralysis, speech impairment, visual impairment, imbalance, forgetfulness and behavioral disorders, as well as serious consequences such as death and vegetative state.
The most important medical approach that can be taken before the development of cerebrovascular diseases is to protect the health of the vessels and take precautions against blockage or bleeding. After cerebrovascular disease develops, the most important approach is to limit the problem to the existing vessel, protect the other healthy vessel, and ensure long-term recovery with physical therapy and rehabilitation. The most important risk factors for cerebrovascular diseases are hypertension, diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, high cholesterol, sedentary life, poor eating habits and smoking. All of these causes are treatable or controllable conditions.
Healing in cerebrovascular diseases is mostly possible by relearning and taking over the duties of damaged tissues from healthy brain tissues over time, therefore protecting healthy tissues is the most important treatment goal. Provided that medications are used properly, physical therapy directs the brain to continuous recovery and allows the patient to regain lost functions.
Since hypertension is one of the most important causes of both vascular occlusion and stroke, in patients with brain hemorrhage due to high blood pressure, the blood pressure is taken under control and It may be recommended to start blood thinners again after the blood is withdrawn from the brain.
Cerebrovascular disease can occur at any age, but it is often caused by other diseases or genetics in children, hormonal changes in young women, and alcohol-substance-cigarette use in young men. However, it should not be forgotten that almost any cause at any age can cause cerebrovascular disease. After cerebrovascular disease occurs, intracranial pressure, naturally blood pressure, must remain high in order to prevent the increased intracranial pressure due to edema from closing by putting pressure on other vessels. It is necessary to ensure the This situation may seem strange if it is not explained to the patient's relatives.
