Patient's question:
Hello, after the child of the neighbor Mr. Wang was born, he was diagnosed with mild cerebral palsy shortly after. Now, the child's intelligence, language, and other aspects are not the same as those of children of the same age. How should this condition be treated? What should be paid attention to regarding cerebral palsy?Doctor's answer:
Cerebral palsy has complex and diverse clinical manifestations. The occurrence of cerebral palsy can cause sudden stiffness in children: it may be difficult to dress them when they are in certain positions, such as when lying on their backs, bending their bodies, or hugging them. Flaccidity: The baby's head and neck are soft and cannot be lifted. When held in the air, their limbs hang down. The baby rarely moves. Developmental delay: Learning to lift the head, sit, and use both hands is later than that of children. They may use one part of the body more than another, such as: some children often use one hand instead of both hands. Poor feeding: Difficulty with sucking and swallowing. The tongue often pushes milk and food out. Difficulty closing the mouth. Abnormal behavior: They may be fussy, easily irritable, have poor sleep, or be very quiet, sleeping too much, or not smiling at 3 months.
