Therefore, each subject by random selection of one of these blocks is placed in one of two groups. So, randomly, there will be 10 subjects in each group, Blinding description: Unawareness of the participants and the evaluator of the outcomes about the groups.</study_design>

      <i_freetext>Intervention 1: Combined treatment group: Patients in this group receive anodal stimulation of tDCS with conventional treatment for 30 minutes. The anodal-tDCS with a 1 mA intensity is inserted bilaterally into the pharyngeal motor cortex in the left and right hemisphere. Conventional swallowing treatment is a protocol of rehabilitation and compensatory treatments. This protocol will be obtained according to the clinical evaluation results of swallowing. Rehabilitation treatment includes swallowing maneuvers (Mendelsohn maneuver, supraglottic swallowing maneuver, super-supraglottic swallowing maneuver, and effortful swallow ), oral-motor exercises, and Thermal-tactile stimulation. Compensatory methods will also include adjusting the volume, velocity, and speed of food delivery and postural techniques. Intervention 2: sham treatment group: In the sham-tDCS group, patients first receive tDCS stimulation for 30 seconds with an intensity of 1mA intensity, and after 30 seconds the stimulation stops and the device turns off without informing the patient. The conventional treatment is also provided to the patient simultaneously for 30 minutes.</i_freetext>
