Many patients with cerebral hemorrhage experience nausea and vomiting. This is primarily because the cerebral hemorrhage can significantly increase intracranial pressure. Elevated intracranial pressure can cause nausea, vomiting, and also lead to papilledema. The general treatment for vomiting symptoms caused by cerebral hemorrhage is as follows: First, patients should maintain stable rest and keep a calm mood without large emotional fluctuations. Second, patients can be administered intravenous dehydration drugs to reduce intracranial pressure, which can also alleviate symptoms of vomiting. Third, patients should be fed soft, easily digestible food. Fourth, antiemetic drugs can be injected intramuscularly for symptomatic treatment. (Please use medicines under the guidance of a professional physician and do not self-medicate.)

Preliminary symptoms of cerebral hemorrhage

Cerebral hemorrhage is a severe and sudden onset condition that usually starts without any prodromal symptoms, manifesting as hemiplegia, severe headaches, or even coma. However, some patients may exhibit certain early symptoms, which mainly include: First, headache, which is not particularly severe, is tolerable, but typically affects the forehead and both temporal areas. Second, patients generally have very high, hard-to-control blood pressure. If the blood pressure is extremely high and difficult to manage, the possibility of cerebral hemorrhage should be considered. Third, in the early stages of cerebral hemorrhage, patients may experience symptoms such as dizziness, blurred vision, and general weakness. Overall, the early symptoms of cerebral hemorrhage are not particularly typical. If a patient with high blood pressure becomes hard to manage, experiences slight headaches, dizziness, blurred vision, and some nausea, these may be indicative of the early symptoms of cerebral hemorrhage.

Early warning signs of cerebral hemorrhage

Cerebral hemorrhage is an emergency in neurology, typically presenting acutely with little to no warning signs. Patients usually experience rapid onset of symptoms including headache, nausea, vomiting, and paralysis of limbs. A detailed look at the patient's medical history may reveal some prodromal symptoms such as recent overexertion, emotional excitement, lack of rest, or constipation, which are common triggers. If a patient experiences repeated chronic headaches and general weakness, these could be the mechanical prodromal symptoms of cerebral hemorrhage. A significant fluctuation in blood pressure should also raise concerns about the possibility of a cerebral hemorrhage. Once a cerebral hemorrhage occurs, it is crucial to promptly seek hospital treatment. If the volume of the hemorrhage is substantial, it poses a life-threatening risk to the patient and surgical treatment may be necessary. If the hemorrhage is smaller, conservative treatment may suffice, focusing on bed rest, maintaining emotional stability, and administering neuroprotective medications.

Can a secondary hemorrhage from cerebral hemorrhage be saved?

Although the mortality rate for secondary hemorrhage of cerebral hemorrhage is relatively high, there is still hope for recovery if medical attention is sought in time and aggressive treatment is administered. For instance, those with large amounts of hemorrhage can undergo surgical treatment in neurosurgery, while those with smaller amounts of bleeding can receive conservative treatment. Generally, the smaller the amount of bleeding, the greater the likelihood of survival.

Does cerebral hemorrhage have a genetic basis?

Cerebral hemorrhage is not hereditary and is not a genetic disease; it is a type of acute cerebrovascular disease. Its occurrence is related to risk factors of cerebrovascular disease, and some risk factors may be related to genetics. Therefore, having a family history of cerebral hemorrhage is considered one of the factors that can increase the incidence rate of cerebral hemorrhage in patients. For example, if a patient's parents have hypertension, diabetes, or hyperlipidemia, these risk factors can significantly increase the likelihood that the patient will also develop these conditions as they age. Long-term hypertension, diabetes, and hyperlipidemia can lead to arterial wall hardening, sometimes resulting in hyaline degeneration. When blood pressure fluctuates, it can easily form microaneurysms that rupture and bleed, thus causing cerebral hemorrhage. Therefore, although cerebral hemorrhage itself is not hereditary, hereditary-related conditions such as hypertension and diabetes might lead to its occurrence.

What is cerebral hemorrhage?

The term "cerebral hemorrhage" usually refers to bleeding caused by non-traumatic rupture of brain blood vessels. The causes include hypertension, arteriosclerosis, amyloid angiopathy, and vascular malformations, among others, often occurring during excessive fatigue, emotional excitement, or strenuous defecation. Clinically, it has a high rate of self-harm, and most survivors suffer from varying degrees of brain dysfunction. Additionally, some cases of cerebral hemorrhage are caused by trauma; the treatment principles and prognosis for these patients are similar to those for non-traumatic cerebral hemorrhages.
