Patient's question:
My child is six years old this year and has cerebral palsy. He is doing well, and I would like to know if he can go to school.Doctor's answer:
Hello, I'm glad to answer your question: Cerebral palsy children's muscle spasticity is a dysfunction of the sensory motor system, caused by hyperactive muscle stretch reflexes. Muscle stiffness and contracture, as well as fibrosis, can interact with pathological regulatory mechanisms. This hinders the normal control of the child's limb posture and movement, leading to reduced joint mobility and functional impairment. Contracture may be one of the most serious consequences of spasticity.
