Brain Stroke at Younger age is on rise.

Brain Strokes at younger age is on rise. With better acute management, ones life is saved but left with deficits - cognitive, Speech, swallow, motor, bladder, bowel and so on. People not knowing what to do while keeping such patients at home. Big need for comprehensive rehab management to keep up their quality of life. Getting calls every day asking what to do with this post stroke sequalae - and its still more difficult in tier 2 and remote places. Though a hospital has constraints in making a complete rehab unit, it's high time to upskill the existing resources atleast to manage post stroke sequalae. Planning for a telerehab concept to facilitate rehab care at remote places -  which I will release it soon.

Inadequate management of Hypertension, Diabetes, Dyslipidemia. Along with evident risk factors like Smoking, Alcohol, Sedentary lifestyle - now people sleep less, eat more at odd time (absolute slaves of their taste buds), talk more (especially over mobile phones) with unnecessary arguments over social media causing adrenergic rush. STAY HEALTHY, STAY SAFE.
