Patient's question:
NoDoctor's answer:
But since the fingers are connected to the brain, the more flexible the hands become as one grows older, the better the brain develops. If you want to enhance future brain development, you can massage the little hands more often and use various different materials (safe ones) for him to touch, pick up, grab, and hold to stimulate hand development. When an infant's hand grasps something, it naturally reflexively tightens. So, placing an adult's finger in the baby's palm and having him grip it gently while slightly pulling upward can help train his hand strength. However, for such a small baby, only a slight lift is possible, and their head should not be lifted off the bed to avoid danger. As the baby grows older and becomes stronger, they can be lifted higher. After the age of 1 or 2, they can even be swung on an adult's arm in a way similar to swinging on a playground swing, provided proper safety measures are taken to prevent the child from falling and getting injured.
