Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
His situation could be related to depression after stroke. For this reason, I recommend consulting first with his neurologist for a physical exam and then with a psychiatrist. Antidepressants can help improve his situation if he is depressed.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Iliri
