Patient's question:
When checked at the local hospital, the family was very shocked when they were just diagnosed with infantile cerebral palsy and didn't know what to do. Where should they go for treatment?Doctor's answer:
1. Central motor disorders are characterized by significantly delayed motor development compared to children of the same age. It is often only when the child struggles with lifting their head, rolling over, or sitting that the parents notice the condition. The child's limbs rarely move, especially the lower limbs, often、、. Due to difficulties in voluntary movement, the actions are stiff and uncoordinated, often exhibiting abnormal movement patterns.2. Abnormal muscle tone and posture. When there are lesions in the extrapyramidal system or basal ganglia, the main manifestations in children with cerebral palsy include abnormal movements, increased muscle tone, athetosis, chorea, and muscle rigidity. When there are lesions in the cerebellum, ataxia and hypotonia may occur.
