Blood Clotting in brain

Question

Asked for Male, 75 Years

My father fell down a couple of months ago, but have not faced any problem. Couple of days back, he sensed some tingling on left leg. When we went to consult the doctor, he informed about a blood clot on the back side of brain and asked to go for surgery after doing MRI. However, one other doctor said it can be healed without surgery. Please help
