HI
Thanks for posting your query .

Many factors determine the recovery from Stroke .

1. Extent of damage to brain at the time of Stroke .

2. Whether the stroke was due to bleed or blockage .

3. Whether the Stroke was treated with Anti-platelet medications or any thrombolysis was done .

4 . How aggressively Physiotherapy was given ? ( How frequently by the therapist and by family members )

5. If diabetic how well his sugars are controlled ?

Kindly revert back to me with details asked and I can give you more proper information .

Dear sir/ madam,

Is there any injury after falling. Please specify type of fall. If he is doing his exercises regularly, he should recover.
