Patient's question:
My sister's daughter has cerebral palsy. It was discovered when she was just over one year old. Now, the family has visited nearly all the major hospitals in various places, and everyone says it can only be managed, not cured. It can alleviate symptoms but not treat the condition. Having a child is supposed to be a joyful thing, but now it's causing a lot of distress for my sister and her family. Could you please tell me how to treat pediatric cerebral palsy? I hope a doctor can recommend an effective method.Doctor's answer:
Hello, it's a pleasure to assist you: Cerebral palsy is cerebral palsy, and the prognosis is generally not ideal. Cerebral palsy also has mild and severe forms. Severe cerebral palsy cannot be treated. Mild cerebral palsy can gradually recover through rehabilitation training. The specific needs of the child should be assessed. Rehabilitation for cerebral palsy mainly involves acupuncture combined with reasonable treatment. This is a long-term process, and the effects will not be significant. It is recommended that you seek treatment at a professional hospital.
