Patient's question:
My child has had cerebral palsy since birth, and now they are in their teens. They still have difficulty speaking clearly, and their intelligence is slightly weaker than that of their peers. What methods can be used to improve this situation?Doctor's answer:
Hello, cerebral palsy usually occurs before birth or in infancy. The main symptoms are increased muscle tone, difficulty with abduction, and in severe cases, muscle rigidity. Patients often also have language development and dysarthria disorders, as well as strabismus. Cerebral palsy can cause delayed motor development, shuffling gait, scissor gait, and other issues. Rehabilitation exercises can only improve the imitation ability of children with cerebral palsy and intellectual disabilities, and through exercise, some motor functions can be improved.
