This patient has multiple infarcts in the brain, few old and few new ones. This means your patient had a stroke on more than 1 occasion, though minor ones. There is a risk of getting more minor strokes or a major stroke with paralysis in the future. The main goal of treatment for stroke is to prevent its recurrence. So I would suggest you to get completely evaluated at a hospital, get tests for all risk factors and start appropriate medications.

Next Steps

1. Get Stroke workup done.

Health Tips

Do not miss the medications in future.
