Does cerebral palsy in children have anything to do with smoking?

Patient's question:

Health consultation description: The baby is one year old, but every time we talk to him or play with him, he doesn't respond. Now, most children are almost walking, but he never crawls either. After a thorough check-up at the hospital, the doctor said it was infantile cerebral palsy. Is this related to my smoking? Does cerebral palsy have anything to do with parents smoking?

Doctor's answer:

This situation, based on experience, is not too severe. It can be diagnosed as a sequela of certain diseases caused by systemic severe infectious diseases, head trauma, carbon monoxide poisoning, etc. It is recommended that you consult a formal hospital for further information, which will help you understand the details better. Early understanding of the treatment is important. Patients with this condition should first avoid consuming too much hot and irritating food, and should avoid smoking, alcohol, and spicy, greasy foods in their daily diet. It is important to pay attention to consuming sufficient amounts of protein, vitamins, and other nutrients, and to eat more fruits and vegetables.
