Patient's question:
The son is 3 years old now. Children of his age can already talk and walk. But he can't even pronounce "Mom" clearly. Up to now, he still cannot walk. The family is very anxious and took him to the hospital for a check-up. They then found out that he suffers from cerebral palsy. What are the treatment methods for pediatric cerebral palsy?Doctor's answer:
Hello. The treatment methods for cerebral palsy include Baihui, Yintang, and Sun. For the head, select the following acupoints: Shuigou, Fengchi. For the upper limbs, select the shoulder, Quchi, Zusanli, and Hegu. For the lower limbs, select Huantiao, Yinmen, Fuzhong, Yanglingquan, Zusanli, Taixi, Taichong, and Kunlun. For aphasia, add Yamen. For, add Scutellaria and Yangming. Except for the Governing Vessel, the surgical order is limbs, head, and spine. The technique should be smooth, light yet firm, to avoid causing muscle spasms. Typically, friction methods are used first, gradually changing to squatting and rolling methods. When moving the limbs, the distal parts are gradually pushed towards the proximal parts. Every 15 minutes, once every other day. Three months constitute a course of treatment.
