Background: Globally, according to the WHO, cerebrovascular (stroke) injuries are the second largest cause of death and the third
largest cause of disability. Sudden loss of any neurological feature due to disruption to the blood flow is called stroke. Most of the
stroke patients develop permanent disability. Chronic inflammation in asthma patients due to their growing pathophysiology of
inflammation and immune dysfunction may influence the pathogenesis of cardiovascular disorders. In line with this, some studies
have indicated a high risk of cardiovascular disorders in asthma, including myocardial infarction, angina, heart failure, and stroke.
During vigorous activity, if there is no enough supply of oxygen to the brain it can lead to acute stroke with features of hemiparesis,
aphasia, loss of balance and coordination, spasticity, etc. There is increased risk of stroke when associated with asthma. Clinical
findings: The patient was unable to maintain balance, weakness in the right upper and lower limb, pain in shoulder joint, and
restrictions in daily activities. Diagnosis: The features involved are according to the area of involvement in the brain. In this case,
there is infarction of left corona radiata and lentiform nucleus. After medical interventions, a well-structured 9 weeks physical
therapy treatment was initiated. Conclusion: This case report offers a crucial function for physical therapy in a patient’s extensive
rehabilitation that helped her with through strength and range of motion, coordination and improvements in routine everyday living
activities, in pain relief over the shoulder joint.
