Patient's question:
Hello, the daughter of my aunt is 8 years old this year. She was born with oxygen deprivation to the brain, which led to cerebral palsy. For this, her family is very suffering.Doctor's answer:
Physical therapy includes electrotherapy (neuromuscular electrical stimulation, functional electrical stimulation), ultrasound therapy, infrared therapy, hydrotherapy, laser therapy, hyperbaric oxygen therapy, and dietary therapy, among others.Appropriate rehabilitation training methods should be selected based on the classification of the child's condition. It must be emphasized that before parents perform home rehabilitation training on the child, the child should undergo a thorough examination at the hospital to fully understand the basic condition of the child's illness. If any joint dislocation or other lesions unsuitable for rehabilitation treatment are found in the child, these rehabilitation training movements should not be rashly implemented to avoid causing injury to the child.
