Person with brain damage moving and following objects but cant talk or respond what are the chances of recovery?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Time sequence: Following an acute brain injury from trauma, infection, or hypoxia/ ischemia, typically, the most inflammation occurs within 24-48 hrs, with gradual stabilization, and over a period of 18-24 months, brain healing slowly occurs. However, improved function may occur with PT, OT, and speech therapy.
