Is Paralysis Permanent Or Temporary?

Hello Doctor,



I have these queries for my father, he just had a paralysis attack and his left side of the body is affected. left arm is the highly affected part and left leg is still operaionl lets say by 50% and the face is also affected and he is having problem in apeaking.

I am in deep pain right now because i am not with my father as i was in a different country for work. but i am going back home within 3-4 days.

What do you think is the situation permanent or temporary and what can we do other than the medical support like diet part and what extra should we give him so it can help him to move his body parts working gradually.



Thanks a lot for your time !!

hi
this paralysis in most cases recover to a great extent generally,and that depends on the amount of brain that got affected with stroke. one can have physiotherapist help to keep the joint and muscle in normal shape/tone.
wishing your father a early and complete recovery.
