Patient's question:
The child is now just eight months old, but I feel he is slow to react. He also cannot sit yet and is easily startled. Sometimes loud noises will startle him, but his eyes seem to lack sensitivity. I took him to the hospital for a check-up, and the doctor said he has mild symptoms of cerebral palsy. I don’t know how to treat it properly?Doctor's answer:
Mild cerebral palsy is mainly improved through some rehabilitation treatments and functional exercises, and the role of medication is not very significant. Children with cerebral palsy need to undergo rehabilitation training. It is recommended that you take your child to the hospital for physical therapy and occupational therapy. Children with cerebral palsy may have some abnormal postures, which need to be treated. It is not true that they will improve on their own as they grow older, so rehabilitation intervention is necessary to suppress abnormal postures. Wishing your baby early health.
