Good day!
Strokes often leave behind side effects, depending on which part of the brain was affected and how long blood supply to the brain was interrupted. Side effects range from temporary to long-term or permanent, from physical to emotional and mental changes.
Stroke recovery is most rapid within the first 3-4 months, the first 4 weeks of which is when patients make the most noticeable progress. This is also the period when a recurrent stroke is likely to happen. An important part of stroke recovery therefore is to prevent a recurrence. Depending on the cause of the stroke and risk profile of the patient, doctors may prescribe certain medications or advise regular monitoring to reduce the chance of a secondary stroke. It is the best to place them under medical supervision. The main purpose of stroke rehabilitation is to help the stroke patients to regain the lost functions.
Aside from the extent of brain damage incurred, age, overall health condition and commitment to training can also affect the outcome of stroke rehabilitation. However, with motivation, commitment and adequate medical care, patients can increase their chance of a fuller recovery. Caring for your loved ones after a stroke is an extremely important task to alleviate their sufferings and help them get back to life before stroke.
