Patient's question:
Hello, doctor, I have a daughter who is six years old. She has been diagnosed with cerebral palsy since she was young. Up to now, she can't do anything, can't take care of her own urination and defecation, and doesn't recognize me. I want to ask if you have any treatment methods for children with cerebral palsy like this?Doctor's answer:
The main manifestations of cerebral palsy in children are abnormal movements, increased motor activity, athetosis, chorea, and muscle rigidity; when the cerebellum is affected, ataxia and hypotonia may occur; widespread brain lesions can lead to muscle rigidity, tremors, and other symptoms, all of which are signs of cerebral palsy. Treating cerebral palsy involves improving motor function and enhancing self-care abilities by increasing joint mobility, adjusting muscle tone, and improving motor control, coordination, strength, and endurance.
