Cerebral hemorrhage is medically known as intracerebral hemorrhage. The main cause is bleeding in the brain due to rupture of blood vessels or aneurysms, typically occurring on the basis of atherosclerosis. When cerebral hemorrhage creates pressure on brain tissue, it impairs brain function and may lead to symptoms such as hemiplegia or mild hemiparesis. Acute cerebral hemorrhage requires treatment targeting cerebral edema, and dehydration medications can be used to alleviate the condition of brain swelling. Rehabilitation exercises may also be performed. Through the above comprehensive treatments, symptoms such as hemiplegia caused by cerebral hemorrhage can be improved to some extent.
