Brief Answer:
Medicines and exercises

Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXXXXX
Thanks for being in follow-up.

I have gone through the CT scan report. CT scan shows MCA infarct. He should continue regularly with medicines and exercises/physiotherapy.His paresis will improve slowly, may be over a period of months. Exercises are the key to recovery and medicines are to be continued for life to prevent future stroke.

Hope that helps.I shall be glad to have you in follow-up with further details
