Brain infarction belongs to which department?
Brain infarction is usually classified as a neurology disease. Patients with brain infarction often exhibit clear symptoms of headache, dizziness, nausea, vomiting, and significant swallowing dysfunction, leading to coughing while drinking. Some patients may also experience facial nerve paralysis to some extent, manifesting as unclear speech, difficulty speaking, and articulation disorders. When the aforementioned clinical symptoms occur, the possibility of brain infarction is considered high. Performing a cranial MRI scan for patients can help determine the specific location, number, and severity of the infarction. Generally, it is recommended to treat patients with brain infarction during the acute phase with drugs that enhance brain function, nourish the nerves, and promote blood circulation to remove blood stasis, and many patients can achieve satisfactory treatment results. (Specific medications should be used under the guidance of a physician.)
