How to deal with slow brain motor nerve development in a 4-month-old infant

Patient's question:

Now I am working as a massage therapist. The doctor said it can take over 10 days to recover. I have been doing it for 4 days, but when I take steps, I still land on my toes. My head tilts back severely, and I don't want to look down. How can I fix this?

Doctor's answer:

A 4-month-old baby has slow development in brain motor nerve function. During this month, when he uses his elbows to support himself, he can lift his head and chest. This is an important achievement. It allows him to be free and look around according to his own will. You will notice the child bending and straightening his legs independently. It seems as if he is standing (except when you are maintaining his balance). Subsequently, he will try to bend his knees and discover that he can jump. When prone, he can lift his head to 90 degrees; when held upright, his head is stable; when holding his armpits, he can stand for a moment; with the help of his parents, the baby will transition from a lying position to a prone position.
