Hello doctor, my father was having brain stroke while he was traveling from delhi to mumbai and he admitted in kota hospital. he was there for 10 days and done all the tests including MRI. MRI shows that he has a blood clotting on the right side. Now he shifted to Mumbai and his condition is stable. Only my main concern for his recovery, he cant speak properly. But he can stand his own. Doctors advised to do some walk and take medicines. Please advice. Thanks, Prabhat
Hi Prabhat, Thanks for writing in. From what you have written, your father is on the way to recovery following a stroke for which he was earlier managed at a hospital, and now you have shifted him to a new hospital where he is now stable but unable to speak properly. I would have like to know the MRI findings and that could tell me the severity of the stroke. It looks like his speech area was affected. If he is standing on his own, he does not have any serious problem right now. All he requires is a consultation with a speech therapist, who will tell him how to regain his speech to its maximum possible strength by the use of vocal exercises. Wish him a full recovery. Hope this helps.
