A member asked:
My dad had a stroke about four months ago. will there be more improvements in his physical symptoms?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Stroke Recovery: It is not possible to predict precisely how much physical ability will be regained. People usually show the greatest progress in being able to walk during the first 6 weeks. Most recovery occurs within the first 3 months, but you may continue to improve slowly over the next few years. Speech, balance, and skills needed for day-to-day living return more slowly during the first year.
