Stroke & Paralysis Management by Dr. Alok Srivastava

Expert Care for Stroke Recovery and Paralysis Treatment in Lucknow

Dr. Alok Srivastava, a renowned neurosurgeon in Lucknow, is a leading expert in the diagnosis and treatment of stroke and paralysis. With over a decade of experience and a commitment to patient-centric care, Dr. Srivastava provides advanced and comprehensive management for patients recovering from strokes and dealing with paralysis.

Understanding Stroke & Paralysis

  • Stroke occurs when blood flow to the brain is interrupted, either due to a blockage (ischemic stroke) or bleeding (hemorrhagic stroke). This can lead to brain damage, loss of function, or paralysis in parts of the body.
  • Paralysis is often a result of stroke or neurological conditions, causing partial or complete loss of muscle function.

Early intervention and expert management are critical for recovery and improving the quality of life in stroke patients.

Comprehensive Stroke & Paralysis Treatment by Dr. Alok Srivastava

Acute Stroke Care

Dr. Srivastava specializes in managing acute strokes with advanced techniques such as:

  • Thrombolysis (Clot-Dissolving Treatment) for ischemic strokes.
  • Minimally Invasive Surgery for hemorrhagic strokes to remove clots or control bleeding.
  • Neurocritical Care to stabilize patients in the critical phase after a stroke.
Post-Stroke Rehabilitation
  • Comprehensive rehabilitation plans including physical therapy, speech therapy, and occupational therapy.
  • Personalized care to help patients regain lost motor skills and cognitive functions.
  • Focus on improving mobility, muscle strength, and overall quality of life.
Paralysis Management
  • Advanced treatment for hemiplegia (one-sided paralysis), quadriplegia (complete paralysis), and other paralysis types.
  • Use of nerve stimulation therapy, physiotherapy, and cutting-edge interventions to restore function.
  • Multidisciplinary approach involving dieticians, physiotherapists, and neurologists to ensure holistic recovery.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) About Stroke & Paralysis Management

A stroke occurs when the blood supply to the brain is interrupted due to a blockage (ischemic stroke) or bleeding (hemorrhagic stroke). This can damage specific brain regions responsible for muscle control, leading to paralysis, typically on one side of the body.

Recognize a stroke using the FAST method:

  • Face drooping
  • Arm weakness
  • Speech difficulty
  • Time to act (seek medical help immediately)

Other symptoms include sudden confusion, vision problems, severe headache, and loss of balance or coordination.

Recovery from stroke-induced paralysis depends on the severity of the stroke and how quickly treatment begins. Early intervention, rehabilitation, and therapies like physiotherapy and nerve stimulation can significantly improve mobility and function.

Immediate medical attention is crucial. Treatments like thrombolysis (clot-busting medication) should ideally begin within 4.5 hours of stroke symptoms for the best outcomes.

Dr. Alok Srivastava offers:

  • Acute stroke care, including thrombolysis and minimally invasive surgery.
  • Post-stroke rehabilitation involving physiotherapy, speech therapy, and occupational therapy.
  • Advanced techniques like nerve stimulation and holistic care to aid paralysis recovery.

Recovery time varies for each patient. While some may show significant improvements within weeks, others may require months of rehabilitation. Early treatment and a personalized recovery plan improve outcomes.

Minimally invasive surgery involves small incisions and advanced techniques to remove clots, control bleeding, or address complications caused by a stroke. This approach reduces recovery time and risks compared to traditional surgery.

Yes, lifestyle changes can significantly reduce stroke risk. Dr. Srivastava recommends:

  • Controlling high blood pressure and diabetes.
  • Maintaining a healthy weight and exercising regularly.
  • Avoiding smoking and excessive alcohol consumption.
  • Eating a heart-healthy diet.

Dr. Srivastava’s expertise in advanced neurosurgical techniques, minimally invasive procedures, and patient-centric care, combined with his extensive experience, ensures optimal recovery and improved quality of life for every patient.
