Suggest Treatment For The Numbness In The Leg After Stroke

My husband is 42 and had a stroke a few weeks ago (a broken blood vessel, not a clot). He came out of it pretty good, no paralysis, he can speak and function fine. He has numbness on his left side and his leg is especially bothering him. I was wondering if physical therapy could help that. Also, since the stroke, whenever he takes a deep breath he has tremors. Is that an effect of the stroke? Is there anything he can do about it?

Dear Mrs,

Your husband needs a rehabilitation course. It will help greatly. He needs special exercises. Usually they help, but it may take long time to recover, you should be patient and everything will be fine.

Hope I could help you

Wishing a good health to your husband
