Hello there.  I can understand your concern.  He will recover but we cannot gurantee how fast of how much he will recover. When there is a clot or a bleed, nerve cells die and once they are dead, then cannot regenerate back. However certain amount of reconnections can happen for which medicines are prescribed.  The medicines which he is taking are ok. Consult a neurologist in person for further evaluation and management.  Best regards.  Dr. Anil kumar jain.
