Answer
Dear user,
Once the nerves are damaged due to lack of blood supply, the complete recovery is difficult. However nerve interactions can be improved by physiotherapy and rehabilitative therapy. This service is available both at the government and private sector. Most important thing however is to prevent further infarctions by controlling the medical conditions like Diabetes, High blood pressure etc. that is likely to be present in the patient.
