hi neuropast complete recovery willn't take years as there is no or very slow recovery after 1 year.he has grade 3 in left hams. as well 2+ dorsiflexors in left foot now.hoping that glutei and abductor will recover in next few months.is there any specific recovery pattern for periferal nerves i.e from distal to proximal?i agree that we should go for prognostic signs rather than any factor.
