Day 6 my mom has a stroke on the right side of her brain, what to do?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
TWO APPROACHES: 1. Rehabilitate current stroke, using physical therapy, occupational therapy, and maybe orthotic rehab devices. 2. Start prevention by using an anti platelet drug, correcting elevations in blood pressure, homocysteine, triglycerides, cholesterol, and primary heart disease. Might consider adding a statin drug.
