How should cerebral palsy in children be treated?

Patient's question:

How should cerebral palsy in children be treated? Currently, she is only four months old. I have visited many hospitals and rehabilitation centers and consulted with many parents of children with similar cerebral palsy, but the answers I received were all different.

Doctor's answer:

Common symptoms of cerebral palsy usually include foot-pointing down during holding,a toe-standing posture, resembling a pair of feet dancing ballet, and in some cases, even crossing,.
2. At 2-3 months, the child does not smile, lift their head, or open their fingers.
3. At 4-5 months, the child cannot roll over. By 8 months, they still cannot sit, even grasp, or bring their hands to their mouth. Additionally, their intellectual development lags behind that of normal peers.
4. Symptoms of cerebral palsy may include difficulty feeding, weak sucking, swallowing difficulties or easy choking, and vomiting.
5. General weakness and limp or stiff limbs are also symptoms of cerebral palsy.
