What causes hamster stroke?
Stroke in hamsters may be caused by other diseases, such as diabetes, high blood pressure, etc. If a hamster has the above diseases, it is easy to suffer from stroke. Of course, climate change can also induce stroke in hamsters. When the temperature changes suddenly, it will cause the hamster's blood vessels to constrict, causing blood vessel spasm, resulting in insufficient blood flow, which can lead to stroke. A stroke in a hamster may cause head tilt, body weakness, or paralysis.
Precautions after a stroke in a hamster
1. A stroke in a hamster will cause inconvenience to the hamster. The breeder needs to feed and water the hamster by hand, and the diet should be light and easy to digest. Feed the food mainly to prevent the hamster's condition from getting worse.
2. At this stage, it is basically impossible to cure stroke in hamsters, but traditional Chinese medicine can be used to alleviate the condition of hamsters. For example, Shaoyao Licorice Decoction has a certain therapeutic effect on spasm (convulsions) after stroke. It can increase the straightening range of the upper limbs and reduce muscle tension.
3. Stroke may cause the hamster to be depressed, and in severe cases, it may even lead to depression. The breeder needs to take good care of the hamster's mood and do not yell at it, so that it can spend the rest of its life happily. .
