A member asked:
Any ideas of speech improvement for dysarthria?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Neurological deficit: Dysarthria is a neurologic problem of cranial nerves 9, 10, 12 which impairs the ability to speak normally. I am not sure how much improvement is possible but a speech therapist may be able to help.
