Suggest treatment for the numbness in the leg after stroke
Patient: My husband is 42 and had a stroke a few weeks ago (a broken blood vessel, not a clot).  He came out of it pretty good, no paralysis, he can speak and function fine.  He has numbness on his left side and his leg is especially bothering him.  I was wondering if physical therapy could help that.  Also, since the stroke, whenever he takes a deep breath he has tremors.  Is that an effect of the stroke?  Is there anything he can do about it? Doctor: Dear Mrs,Your husband needs a rehabilitation course. It will help greatly. He needs special exercises. Usually they help, but it may take long time to recover, you should be patient and everything will be fine.Hope I could help youWishing a good health to your husbandIn case of further questions don't hesitate to askRegards,
