What should be noted after brain vascular stent surgery?

Doctor's answer (1)
Dr. Huang Shichang
After brain vascular stent surgery, the following points should be observed: 1. Rest and Sleep: Ensure adequate rest and sleep. Avoid staying up late or overexertion to promote recovery. 2. Dietary Adjustment: Eat light, easily digestible, high-protein foods such as fish and milk. Avoid spicy and irritating foods like chili peppers and spicy snacks. 3. Wound Care: Keep the surgical wound clean and dry. Avoid contact with water or any pressure, friction, or impact to prevent infection. 4. Medication Compliance: Take antiplatelet medications (such as enteric-coated aspirin tablets and clopidogrel hydrogen sulfate tablets) exactly as prescribed by your doctor—do not adjust the dosage on your own. 5. Regular Follow-up: Attend scheduled hospital check-ups after surgery to monitor recovery progress and adjust the treatment plan promptly if needed.
