Headache? A cerebral infarction?


Healing with compassion, caring with dedication.
Headache may be a cerebral infarction, but not all headaches are caused by cerebral infarction. Whether a headache is a cerebral infarction can be determined from the nature of the headache. Generally, a mild headache is not necessarily a cerebral infarction. Severe headaches may be caused by a large cerebral infarction, resulting in excessive intracranial pressure. If the forehead pain, and is mainly bilateral pulsatile pain, more considered to be caused by hypertension, or due to long-term lack of sleep, caused by muscle tension headache, generally not cerebral infarction. If the whole head produces pain, accompanied by vomiting, nausea, aphasia, hemiplegia and other manifestations, may be caused by acute cerebral infarction. Can be diagnosed by brain CT and head MRI examination.
