Patient's question:

Great. Diagnosed with cerebral palsy and developmental delay at Harbin Children's Hospital. Stayed in the hospital for a month. After the doctor's massage and rehabilitation training, the child could roll over only at the age of one and a half. What should be done?

Doctor's answer:

Hello. Cerebral palsy is caused by damage to brain cells due to certain reasons, leading to delayed child development, intellectual disability, and other issues. The sequelae mainly include limb movement coordination problems, incomplete language development, or even paralysis. You can go to the hospital's rehabilitation department for rehabilitation training. The key to treatment is comprehensive and systematic. If we look purely at the training methods to improve the strength of the waist and back muscles. What you do at home is correct. However, cerebral palsy is a systemic symptom. If you only perform simple training to improve the strength of the waist and back muscles. Even if the muscle strength improves, but other symptoms are not improved, you will not be able to observe his improvement. It is recommended that you go to a professional rehabilitation institution for comprehensive and systematic treatment.
