Patient's question:
My colleague's daughter suffers from cerebral palsy. The child is now three years old, but still cannot walk and speaks incoherently. Her spirits are good. They took her to the hospital for a check-up, and the doctor confirmed it was cerebral palsy. My colleague is now very anxious. Which specialized hospital is good for treating cerebral palsy?Doctor's answer:
Symptoms of Cerebral Palsy:1. Difficulty with feeding after birth, such as weak sucking ability and swallowing problems.
2. Lack of coordination, asymmetry, and few voluntary movements.
3. Delayed motor development. For example, a child aged 3–4 months cannot hold their head up while lying on their stomach; after 4 months, they still cannot use their forearms to support weight; their hands are often clenched into fists, and they cannot extend their hands to suck; by 6–7 months, they still cannot roll over or sit independently for a short period.
4. Frequent muscle tone abnormalities and abnormal postures and movement patterns.
5. Infants born often cry less.
