Hi
Thanks for being on healthcaremagic.com
Once a stroke occurs, some part of the brain gets damaged and the function which it plays in body is impaired. Now, as a dead thing can't come to life again; the same way dead part of the brain can't come to life. However, with physiotherapy and speech therapy, other healthy part of the brain starts helping in bodily functions. So, slowly the deficits improve but to what extent they'll improve, that can't be predicted. Hope you understood.
