Patient's question:
My younger brother is a child with cerebral palsy. I heard that this is a very serious disease. Is it really like that?Doctor's answer:
Hello, the methods for treating cerebral palsy include drug therapy, hyperbaric oxygen therapy, surgical treatment, which is also known as surgical correction therapy, and pediatric cerebral palsy can also be treated through rehabilitation training. Additionally, treating pediatric cerebral palsy requires correcting motor disorders and abnormal postures, with the main goal being the restoration of normal motor development. Various measures such as physical therapy, occupational therapy, and surgical therapy should be used for correction and training. For motor abnormalities, a comprehensive approach should be taken to treat them. Common methods include functional training, daily living skills training, physical therapy, and occupational therapy. Massage, acupuncture, and tuina therapy can also help improve symptoms.
