Stroke/ Paralysis/ Adhrang: specialised treatment in Khanna.

A stroke occurs when the blood supply to a part of the brain is disrupted, either due to a clot blocking a blood vessel (ischemic stroke) or a blood vessel rupturing and causing bleeding in the brain (hemorrhagic stroke). ​

The acronym "FAST" (Face drooping, Arm weakness, Speech difficulty, Time to call emergency services) is often used to remember the key warning signs.

​

Dr. Nitika Mahajan is highly skilled in the early diagnosis and treatment of stroke. She utilizes advanced imaging techniques like CT scans and MRIs to determine the type of stroke and its severity. For ischemic strokes, clot-busting medications (thrombolytics) may be administered to restore blood flow.

​​

Post-stroke rehabilitation is a critical aspect of recovery, helping patients regain mobility, speech, and cognitive functions. Dr.Mahajan works closely with physiotherapists, occupational therapists, and speech therapists to create a tailored rehabilitation plan for each patient. With early intervention, appropriate treatment, and rehabilitation, many stroke survivors can make significant progress in regaining their independence.
