How Can Paralysis Of The Arms And Leg Be Treated?
My friend had a massive stroke. His right arm and leg appear paralyzed and until recently he could not talk or swallow. His stroke event happened on Mar 30. He has only a sister to help him. I would like to know different therapies, medications etc that may help him- perhaps that I could discuss with his sister & doctor. Mike is 69 years old.
