Patient's question:
Started having a fever on September 4th, lost consciousness starting 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 my left hand and left foot move more, while my right hand and right foot just move slightly. There is also some sensation in my face. Can this condition be cured?Past treatment history and effectiveness: 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 aid in 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 motor function. This requires long-term exercise and a great sacrifice of heart and effort. Wishing your child a speedy recovery.
