    Stroke is the view of traditional Chinese medicine, which is a collective term for cerebral thrombosis and cerebral hemorrhage in Western medicine. Stroke is more common in the elderly, mainly caused by hypertension, cerebral arteriosclerosis, cerebrovascular malformation, aneurysm, hyperlipidemia, high cholesterol, diabetes, coronary heart disease, etc. Cerebral thrombosis is caused by cerebral arteriosclerosis, hyperlipidemia, high cholesterol, coronary heart disease and other arteriosclerosis, increased blood viscosity, and thrombus detachment.

    Intracerebral hemorrhage mainly refers to cerebral hemorrhage caused by cerebral arteriosclerosis, cerebrovascular malformation, aneurysm rupture, decreased coagulation function, and trauma. The causes of stroke in the elderly generally include: arteriosclerosis, high blood pressure, overwork, overexertion, bradycardia, heart disease, arteriosclerosis, subarachnoid hemorrhage, myocarditis, etc.

    It is recommended to pay more attention to rest, and it is necessary to clarify the cause of stroke and treat the symptoms**. The most common cause of stroke in older adults is atherosclerosis.

    <> atherosclerosis, if obvious, can cause the arteries to narrow significantly, forming a large number of lipid plaques that, once shed, can lead to distal cerebral infarction. In addition, if stenosis is significant, it can lead to occlusion of the aorta, which can have serious clinical consequences. When stroke occurs in the elderly, it is also necessary to pay attention to the cardiac causes, such as a possible history of myocardial infarction and atrial fibrillation, which is easy to form cardiogenic cerebral embolism, and the clinical consequences are also very serious.

    In addition, if there is a tumor, it leads to hypercoagulability of the blood or the detachment of tumor cells, forming tumor thrombolysis, which is also an important cause of stroke.

    Effective ways to prevent stroke include adjusting lifestyle and dietary habits, controlling underlying lesions, and seeking regular medical check-ups. Adjust living and eating habits: Adjust living and eating habits, limit the intake of high-fat and high-calorie foods, focus on low-salt, low-fat and low-sugar diets, do not drink alcohol and smoke, avoid excessive mental tension, and carry out reasonable physical exercise.

    Control of underlying lesions: When there are some underlying diseases, such as hypertension and diabetes, reasonable medication should be used to control them, such as nifedipine sustained-release tablets, metformin, etc., to control blood pressure and blood sugar within a stable range and avoid repeated increases in blood pressure and blood sugar. Medicines should be used under the guidance of a physician.

    Nowadays, people's diets are irregular, often hungry and full, not on time, and now most of the day is busy with work, breakfast and lunch are casually solved, only at night do they have time to eat, so they often order some heavy food, often greasy and spicy food, high salt, high sugar, High cholesterol and other regular consumption will cause blood viscosity, which will easily form arterial plaque, which will make blood vessels thinner, and further insufficient blood supply to the brain will lead to stroke. Stroke used to be a common disease for the elderly, but now many young people also suffer from stroke, most of which may be due to the fact that young people do not pay special attention to their own bodies, or young people are exposed to more risk factors.

    There are many young people who feel that their body is resistant, so when there are some minor problems in the body, they do not pay special attention to it, such as high blood pressure and high blood lipids. In fact, high blood pressure and high blood lipids are risk factors for stroke. Nowadays, young people are also under great pressure, often working overtime and staying up late, so the sequelae of staying up late may have stroke, such as some people will have dizziness after staying up late, and in severe cases, they will faint and urinate, it is recommended to go to the hospital in time for a check-up, and you may have a stroke if you are not careful.

    Most of the people nowadays are sitting and working, the amount of exercise is very small, and after returning home, they will not sit while lying down, and they will not stand if they can sit, let alone exercise again, for a long time, the body is out of a state of poor blood circulation during the day. Sitting in front of the computer for a long time, the limbs may be harder, and the limbs are more numb when you stand up, which is actually a prerequisite for stroke. In addition, some young people smoke and drink alcohol due to stress, and these two things will also increase the chance of stroke, smoking and drinking will lead to increased blood pressure, and will damage liver function, thereby affecting blood lipids, and in severe cases, stroke will occur.

    In order to reduce the chance of stroke, it is recommended that you do a good job in your daily life, such as exercising regularly, exercising for at least half an hour a day, and quitting smoking and drinking, so that you can also make your body healthier. Eat more fruits and vegetables, don't always eat big fish and meat, otherwise it will also increase blood lipids and cause stroke.
