What should be done for children with cerebral palsy?

Patient's question:

The baby has been different from other children since childhood. His gaze is very vacant. He rarely smiles. He started talking late. Even now, his pronunciation is unclear. He walks unsteadily. His development is very slow. The family is very worried. They took him to the hospital for check-ups and were diagnosed with cerebral palsy. Can children with cerebral palsy be cured?

Doctor's answer:

Hello. Generally, it can be cured. The best treatment for cerebral palsy is "3 earlys." "Early detection. Early diagnosis. Early treatment." The best treatment period for cerebral palsy is 6 months, with the highest normalization rate. The second is before the age of 1, and then at 3 years old. After 3 years, the blood-brain barrier forms, making it difficult for drugs to act on the brain. Therefore, the therapeutic effect is greatly reduced. Your child is now over 2 years old and needs to act quickly.
Treatment methods for cerebral palsy: Currently, the main treatment methods are divided into several types. Simple rehabilitation training, surgery, and a combination of traditional Chinese medicine with rehabilitation training and cell transplantation. From the perspective of treatment methods, all treatments require rehabilitation training. In terms of effectiveness, the best option is a comprehensive traditional Chinese medicine treatment combined with rehabilitation training.
