Hello,

Physical therapy is necessary for further improvement after brain infarction. Blood pressure should be maintained under control besides the diabetes. Blood thinners also should be used to prevent recurrence of infarction and to reduce the clot.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
