Patient's question:
A girl is 2 years old this year, her spirits have not been very good recently, and then she found out she was sick. Could you please tell me: What are the main symptoms of cerebral palsy in children?Doctor's answer:
Clinical diagnostic symptoms of cerebral palsy primarily manifest as motor and sensory-motor impairments. In clinical diagnosis, they can be categorized based on their nature into types such as severe pain, involuntary movement, ataxia, spasticity, and mixed types. Additionally, they are classified according to the affected limbs as monoparesis, hemiparesis, diplegia, triparesis, and quadriplegia. Some cases require enhanced training and correction for children, while others must undergo surgical treatment.It is recommended that currently, in clinical diagnosis, the treatment of cerebral palsy should focus on enhancing joint mobility, readjusting muscle tone to significantly improve activity control, coordination, strength, and endurance, thereby stabilizing motor function and increasing self-care abilities.
