According to the American Stroke Association (ASA), about one in four stroke survivors suffers a second one. But it doesn’t have to be that way; preventing a second stroke starts with you.

Treatment options to prevent future strokes can be tailored to individual situations. Work with your doctor to create a plan that reduces your risks and addresses your specific goals, concerns, and circumstances.

The ASA provides the following tips to help prevent a second stroke:

• Work with your doctor to identify the cause of your stroke or previously unknown risk factors. Jointly create a formal program to live a healthier lifestyle that includes exercise, education, and counseling.
• Attend all your follow-up appointments.
• Take recommended medications.
• Manage your risk factors.
• Connect with a support group.

The brain controls the body’s movement, senses, thinking, and memory. When a stroke blocks blood flow to part of the brain, that area can be damaged and lead to changes in sensory, motor, or cognitive abilities.

A stroke on the left side of the brain often affects the right side of the body. It can cause speech and language difficulties (aphasia), right-sided weakness or paralysis, challenges with reasoning or memory, and slower behavior.
A stroke on the right side of the brain often affects the left side of the body. It can cause left-sided weakness or paralysis, vision and spatial perception issues, memory problems, and more impulsive behavior.
Understanding these effects helps with stroke awareness and recovery support.

More than half a million people experience a stroke every year in the United States. According to the American Stroke Association and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, up to 80% of strokes may be preventable by managing key risk factors.

The most important steps include controlling high blood pressure, managing diabetes and high cholesterol, staying physically active, maintaining a healthy weight, eating a balanced diet, quitting smoking, and limiting alcohol. Conditions like atrial fibrillation (AFib) should also be evaluated by a healthcare provider.
Stroke prevention is often possible with consistent lifestyle changes and proper medical care. Talk with your healthcare provider about your stroke risk and how to reduce it.

For many people, aging at home is an important goal. Occupational therapists can help older adults maintain safety and independence in their homes, especially following an injury or illness, by:

• Teaching adaptive strategies with dressing, grooming, cooking, or eating
• Recommending home modifications like grab bars, improved lighting, and removal of tripping hazards
• Providing organizational techniques to remember important tasks
• Training individuals on the proper use of adaptive equipment
Through these strategies and others, occupational therapists can help older adults prevent injuries and maintain as much independence and quality of life as possible.

Many individuals who have undergone an amputation experience phantom limb pain, which is a sensation of pain, tingling, or discomfort that feels like it is coming from a limb that’s no longer there.

Phantom pain occurs because the brain and nervous system continue to send and receive signals related to the missing limb. Researchers believe phantom limb pain can occur due to several factors, including:
• Neurological changes where the brain’s sensory map still recognizes the missing limb
• Misfiring of nerve signals from nerves that were severed
• Scar tissue formation that places pressure on nearby nerves
• Psychological factors such as stress, anxiety, or depression that may intensify pain symptoms
Rehabilitation can help manage phantom limb pain and improve quality of life. Treatment may include desensitization techniques, stretching, massage, and prosthetic training to help the body adapt after a limb loss.

People living with Parkinson’s disease may experience a variety of symptoms that
affect everyday life, including tremors, muscle stiffness, slowed movement,
fatigue, balance problems, and difficulty walking.Occupational therapists play an important role in helping individuals maintain independence
and safely perform daily activities for as long as possible. Through techniques
and exercises, occupational therapists can help individuals increase hand
strength, coordination, and dexterity, while improving movement and reducing
fall risks. In addition, occupational therapists can supply strategies and
adaptations to help with everyday activities like dressing, bathing, grooming,
and meal preparations. Energy conservation and pacing techniques also can be
provided to help to manage fatigue.By focusing on practical solutions for everyday activities, occupational therapy
can help individuals with Parkinson’s maintain confidence, independence, and
quality of life.

Recovering from an amputation often requires specialized rehabilitation to regain strength, mobility, and independence. Research shows that individuals who receive rehabilitation at an inpatient rehabilitation facility have better outcomes than those who receive care at nursing homes or skilled nursing facilities. According to a study by Dobson DaVanzo & Associates, patients treated in medical rehabilitation hospitals are more likely to return home sooner, remain home longer, and have improved functional outcomes.

Medical rehabilitation hospitals provide patients with intensive therapy at a minimum of 15 hours a week, with services including:
• Prosthetic training to learn how to properly use and care for a prosthetic limb
• Pain management strategies to reduce phantom limb pain and discomfort
• Strength and mobility exercises to improve balance, stability, and movement
• Functional training to safely perform everyday activities
With the right support and therapy, many individuals with limb loss can successfully regain independence and return to activities that they enjoy.
