Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXXXXX
Thanks for being on healthcaremagic.com.
I am Dr.Ajay Panwar,a neurologist,here to answer your query.


In a case of stroke,what is beyond confusion, is that time limit is not defined for cure or improvement.Improvement may take from months to an year.
Regular physiotherapy and speech therapy is vital.No specific exercises for swallowing.

Regarding medicines,I would be able to comment well after looking at her brain MRI/CT report.Please upload the same.

I shall be glad to have you in follow-up with CT/MRI report.

Regards
