What is cerebrovascular disease?

Condition analysis:
 The word cerebrovascular is made up of two parts – "cerebro" which refers to the large part of the brain, and "vascular" which means arteries and veins. Together, the word cerebrovascular refers to blood flow in your brain. The term cerebrovascular disease includes all disorders in which an area of the brain is temporarily or permanently affected by ischemia or bleeding and one or more of the cerebral blood vessels are involved in the pathological process. Cerebrovascular disease includes stroke, carotid stenosis, vertebral stenosis and intracranial stenosis, aneurysms, and vascular malformations.

Restrictions in blood flow may occur from vessel narrowing (stenosis), clot formation (thrombosis), blockage (embolism), or blood vessel rupture (hemorrhage). Lack of sufficient blood flow (ischemia) affects brain tissue and may cause a stroke.

Instructions:
1) Gentle Massage:

If you are experiencing paralyzed limbs after a stroke, you should move all of the joints on a daily basis. Gentle massage will help bring paralyzed muscles back to life. The massage will also prepare the body for getting out of the bed and attempting to walk when you are ready.

2) Epsom Salts:
In the early stages of recovery and movement, you may soak in an Epsom salt bath two times per week. The bath will help relax the muscles and rejuvenate the body during your recovery. Overall, you may start to feel better much quicker.
