Cerebral arteriosclerosis patients can generally visit the cardiovascular medicine department or neurology department. Cerebral arteriosclerosis is primarily caused by insufficient cerebral blood supply and neurological dysfunction, leading to symptoms such as headache, limb numbness, blurred vision, and difficulty concentrating. Treatment should be conducted under a doctor's guidance using medications like atorvastatin and rosuvastatin. In daily life, patients are advised to consume light, nutritious foods.
