Brain injury rehabilitation treatment at Nghe An Rehabilitation Hospital
(Baonghean) - To restore function after brain injury, Nghe An Rehabilitation Hospital is currently one of the trusted addresses of many patients.
Brain damage (including stroke, traumatic brain injury, brain tumor surgery...) not only leaves very serious sequelae for the patient, but also causes psychological instability for the patient's family. Although these injuries are at different levels, they lead to the most disability.
Severe consequences

Mr. Nguyen Tam (69 years old, Ha Huy Tap ward, Vinh city) has had a stroke for 12 years now, and has been to many central and provincial hospitals. And every year, he goes to Nghe An Rehabilitation Hospital for treatment and rehabilitation of his musculoskeletal system, especially to restore his mobility so that he can take care of himself.
Having lived with the disease for more than 10 years, there were times when he felt frustrated because he could not do even the smallest activities such as eating rice, drinking water, or just wiping his face or brushing his teeth because his hands were always shaking and his legs were unsteady, so he had to ask his wife, children and grandchildren for help in doing anything. Since being treated at Nghe An Rehabilitation Hospital, he has been taken care of wholeheartedly by doctors, nurses and especially by the hospital's rehabilitation exercises on modern machines, and he has improved a lot.

As for Mr. Le Anh Sang (Thanh Khe commune, Thanh Chuong district), 70 years old this year, he suffered from a stroke 20 years ago. Due to not being treated promptly, he was left with quite severe consequences: unable to walk, almost only using a wheelchair to move, trembling hands and feet, unable to grasp things, crooked mouth.
She has been serving him for 20 years now. For over a year now, the family has decided to transfer his insurance to Nghe An Rehabilitation Hospital for treatment and recovery after a stroke. Recently, fortunately, Professor Cao Minh Chau directly examined and treated him, so his health has improved a lot. His limbs are softer, he can hold a cup to drink water, and his speech is easier. The family is very excited.
Brain damage is not limited to stroke, traumatic brain injury, but also causes cerebral palsy in children. This is one of the complex injuries, with many difficulties in treatment and recovery. Nghe An Rehabilitation Hospital has recently received many young patients with cerebral palsy.

Usually, patients recover quite well in the first 3 months, recover more slowly in the next 3 months, and recover very slowly after 6 months. Therefore, rehabilitation after brain injury requires patients to be very persistent in practicing and complying with the treatment support regimen of the medical facility. Family members should encourage and take good care of the patient during the treatment support process.
Brain injury recovery solutions
Currently, Nghe An Rehabilitation Hospital has established a Stroke Rehabilitation Center to provide guidance on stroke prevention in particular and brain damage in general, so that people can detect risks and have the best preventive measures. The hospital has been trying to do well in both propaganda and prevention and treatment of post-stroke sequelae.

Exercise and rehabilitation as soon as possible is the only way to help patients reduce sequelae and complications after brain injury. Over the past time, Nghe An Rehabilitation Hospital with a team of highly qualified doctors, nurses and technicians with solid expertise in the field of physical therapy and rehabilitation has helped patients recover their motor functions quickly, reintegrate them into the community and society and give them a better life.
After a brain injury, the patient should practice rehabilitation as soon as possible, and rehabilitation exercises will be carried out in stages. The general goal is to help the patient recover motor function to be able to move, restore language functions such as listening, speaking, understanding, and soon reintegrate into life. The sequelae of brain injury make it difficult for the patient to move and walk. To reduce the sequelae and prevent recurrence, when returning home after the emergency phase, the patient must still be cared for and treated according to a separate regimen.
Good foods for people recovering from brain damage
Abundant source of amino acids thanks to proteins in lean chicken, fish, long beans, green beans, peas... You can choose light dishes such as rice porridge, tofu or animal protein such as chicken eggs, chicken, pork, meat floss, fish, milk, as well as fruits such as apples, orange juice, tangerine, tomatoes... Note that it is necessary to process into soft, easy-to-chew, light dishes that suit the patient's taste. For people in a prolonged coma, you can feed them through a nasal tube with sugar, cow's milk, porridge, soy milk, fruit juice, vegetable juice...

At the same time, you should also eliminate foods containing saturated fats, hydrogenated fats, and foods high in salt because these foods will increase the risk of stroke.
