Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

My grandfather had a stage two brain tumor and got his left part of the brain operated on. Now he is fine but finding it hard to control the right hand and the right leg movements. So, he gets exhausted very soon, particularly after the right-side movements. Kindly suggest any ways we can help him.

Hello,

Welcome to iCliniq.com.

I read your query and can understand your concern. However, I suggest physical and occupational therapy for maximum recovery, especially after the first year of operation. Can you answer a few of my questions to help better?

1) How is his comprehension and verbal expression?

2) Was a biopsy performed and what was the biopsy result of the tumor?

These things also have a significant impact on his recovery.

Please revert with the requested information.

Same symptoms don't mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
