Normal course of bleed due to hypertension is it will dance brain cells supplying opposite side of body. If bp is controlled and bleed stops immediately there starts recovery phase. Bleed regress in a 4 to 7 days. Brain cells improve over 7 to 15 days.. factors which hinders is age. If bp is well controlled due to age recovery will be problematic. U can't predict approximate date and time.
