Patient's question:
Started having a fever on September 4th, started losing consciousness on the 8th, woke up on the 14th, and have now undergone 6 days of hyperbaric oxygen treatment and 10 days of acupuncture treatment. Currently, only the left hand and left foot move more, while the right hand and right foot move only slightly. There is also some sensation in the face. Can this condition be cured?Past treatment history and effects: No specific expectations for help: I hope you can give me advice on how to treat this, whether there are any treatment plans? Thank you
Doctor's answer:
The brain damage caused by Japanese encephalitis is relatively severe, and the current brain damage in your child is also serious. The damage to brain tissue is irreversible, meaning new nerve cells will not grow again. Therefore, the current treatment is to help with recovery. The chances of your child fully recovering are not high. What parents can do is to do their best to help the child live a normal life, be self-sufficient, and fully restore their mobility. This requires long-term exercise and a great sacrifice of effort. Wishing your child a speedy recovery.
