Postoperative intracranial hemorrhage may be caused by hypertension or cerebral vascular malformations. Patients are advised to seek timely medical evaluation at a hospital to determine the underlying cause and receive appropriate treatment. During treatment, diet should be light; spicy, stimulating, raw, or cold foods should be avoided. It is recommended to consume more fresh fruits and vegetables to supplement vitamins and meet increased nutritional needs. Patients should quit smoking and alcohol consumption, avoid staying up late, ensure adequate sleep, and engage in moderate physical exercise to enhance immune function.
