HI
Well come to HCM
Thank for asking
Your query being appreciated, if this is the cerebral stroke you are talking about then steroid has got no role and in fact still no medicine is there that can cure the disease but physiotherapy is the option that can be trusted, else giving steroid is useless, else it is not the cerebral stroke or something else where steroid has really got some role, hope this information helps.
