physiotherapy is still needed, whatever the medical or surgical intervention is opted. Choice is based on type, site and size of the lesion. usually emoblic and thrombotic lesion are treated with thrombolytic drugs. hematoma might need surgery. But the is taken by neurosurgeon if it is operate- able or not.

Stroke is 2 types. one is where blood is clotted and the artey is blocked .Second is when there is rupture of artery.
Each one has different treatment.
The first one is to some extent treatable if patient is brought to hospital within 3 to 4.5 hour. A specific injection called tPA plus minus intervention is needed. Second one is treated mostly conservatively.
Now at this time, when few days are passed, these treatments do not work. so physio should be continued.
