Patient's question:
My own body wasn't in good health to begin with, and I always hoped to have a healthy child. But I never expected that things wouldn't go as planned—my child was born with cerebral palsy, and until now, there's still no cure. Watching my child is truly unbearable.What should a person with cerebral palsy eat? When I first heard the terrible news, I was very unhappy for a while, feeling as if the whole world had abandoned me.
What dietary precautions should be taken for someone with cerebral palsy? What should they avoid eating?
Doctor's answer:
Premature infants have immature internal organs, poor immune function, low vitality, and are extremely fragile, making them a highly vulnerable group. Experts both domestically and internationally also believe that there are many causes of death for low birth weight infants, primarily intraventricular hemorrhage and pulmonary hyaline membrane disease. Those who survive are often accompanied by neurological developmental defects or intellectual disabilities. On the other hand, large for gestational age infants should also be prevented, as their main risks are dystocia and asphyxia, which can similarly damage the central nervous system and lead to cerebral palsy. Cerebral palsy is primarily characterized by motor disorders, with abnormal posture and muscle tone being prominent among them.
