In recent years, the incidence of cerebrovascular diseases has gradually increased, and it has become one of the serious health-threatening diseases. Cerebral infarction is a common type of cerebrovascular disease, and once it occurs, the harm to patients will be immeasurable. Therefore, it is very important to understand the early signs of cerebral infarction symptoms and take timely measures to prevent and intervene.
1.Headache: Before cerebral infarction, there are often persistent or recurrent headaches, which are due to the reduction of blood flow after the damage of cerebral blood vessels, resulting in a lack of oxygen to the brain tissue, resulting in headache discomfort. Headaches are characterized by unbearable headaches, often radiating to the neck or shoulders, accompanied by nausea, vomiting, etc.
2.Sudden behavioral or cognitive changes: Patients may experience sudden behavioral or cognitive changes as a result of cerebral infarction. For example, withdrawal, mood swings, insomnia, or drowsiness may be caused by cerebral infarction.
3.Difficulty in speech or language: One of the symptoms of cerebral infarction is difficulty in speech or language barriers. Patients may have difficulty expressing themselves, speak slurredly, or even be unable to speak. This is because cerebral infarction causes damage to the cerebral cortex and damage to the language center.
4.Movement disorder or paralysis: After cerebral infarction, patients may have sudden movement disorders or paralysis, manifested as limb weakness, stiffness, loss of fine motor ability, etc. This is because cerebral infarction causes impaired cerebral cortical function, resulting in abnormal motor function in patients.
5.Visual abnormalities: After cerebral infarction, patients may have sudden vision abnormalities, such as blurring, visual field loss, or hemianopia. This is due to cerebral infarction affecting the optic nerve or its conduction pathways.
6.Dysfunction or balance difficulties: After a cerebral infarction, patients may have an unsteady gait, swaying walking, or even loss of balance. This is because cerebral infarction affects the control of the brainstem or cerebellum over balance regulation, resulting in symptoms of dysregulation.
The above are the six symptoms that may occur before the onset of cerebral infarction, once these symptoms appear, we should attach great importance to them and seek medical attention in time for diagnosis and **. At the same time, in daily life, we can also prevent the occurrence of cerebral infarction by adjusting diet, exercising reasonably, and maintaining a happy mood.

In traditional Chinese medicine, there are many famous prescriptions that have certain curative effects on cerebral infarction.

Of course, in dealing with cerebral infarction, traditional Chinese medicine is only a way to assist **, and it is necessary to follow the doctor's advice, take the medicine on time, and combine it with modern medical means, such as drugs**, surgery**, training, etc.
