unfortunately yes , there are no medicines to reverse brain damage . unlike the skin the brain tissue doesnot have the ability to regenerate , some healing does occur but it takes a long time and being humans we cannot predict , what we can do to help is regular physiotherapy to build his muscle from developing disuse atrophy , weakness will be there it will never be the same as before. to summarize please get him to do regular exercise/ physiotherapy so that the joints and muscles dont stiffen , by exercise we mean light movement on all tge affected joints
