Is the right side of the pons cerebral infarction serious?

Right pons infarction is usually more serious. If the infarction focus is large, it can lead to consciousness disorder coma, confusion, swallowing difficulties, drinking cough, limb weakness, limb numbness, unstable walking, ataxia, unclear speech and other manifestations may be life-threatening. If the infarction focus is relatively small, it is also possible that the symptoms can be relieved quickly after treatment. But the pons is the part of the brain stem that connects the brain to the spinal cord. If it's thin, infarction can lead to severe dysfunction. The potential risk is greater. Right infarcts usually lead to numbness in the left limb and weakness in the left limb. Acute right pons infarcts require bed rest, a low salt, low fat, low sugar diet. Aggressive medication.
