The treatment of sequelae after cerebral infarction mainly involves taking prescribed medications regularly as directed by a physician, along with enhanced rehabilitation exercises for the patient. Medications used to treat cerebral infarction include edaravone, citicoline, and urokinase. Rehabilitation exercises include swallowing function training, cognitive impairment rehabilitation, and motor and sensory function training. Patients should consult professional rehabilitation physicians who can design individualized rehabilitation programs based on the patient's specific condition.
