Patient's question:
When the baby was just born, he rarely cried. No matter how you tried to entertain him, he wouldn't smile. His gaze was vacant. At three months, he still couldn't follow objects with his eyes. He had little strength when drinking milk and preferred to tilt his head backward. His development was slow. After checking him at the hospital, the doctor said it was cerebral palsy. Can congenital cerebral palsy be cured?Doctor's answer:
Cerebral palsy is the abbreviation for cerebral palsy. It refers to a disease in children caused by various reasons (such as infection, bleeding, trauma, etc.) leading to damage to brain tissue. It is characterized by non-progressive, central motor dysfunction that develops into paralysis. Severe cases may be accompanied by intellectual disability, epilepsy, limb spasms, and visual, auditory, and language dysfunction. Congenital cerebral palsy is generally incurable. There are many treatments for cerebral palsy. However, they are all aimed at alleviating the symptoms it brings. Currently, from a medical perspective, cerebral palsy cannot be completely cured. It is necessary to be mentally prepared for this. Treating cerebral palsy requires persistence. Parents and doctors must work closely together to develop training plans, evaluate training effectiveness, and correct unreasonable training methods under the guidance of a doctor.
