Can cerebral palsy in children be relieved?

Patient's question:

The baby has been different from other children since childhood. His eyes are dull, he rarely smiles, and he started talking late. Even now, he still has difficulty pronouncing words, walks unsteadily, and has very slow development. The family is very worried. They took him to the hospital for check-ups and were diagnosed with cerebral palsy. Can children with cerebral palsy be cured?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, cerebral palsy is congenital, meaning it appears in the womb. To be honest, there's no use going to the hospital for this condition. Hospital treatments only include rehabilitation, medication, surgery, and massage. These treatments cannot directly target the root cause, so their effectiveness is minimal. This is why you spend a lot of money, yet the condition doesn't improve. With current medical technology, it's impossible to be completely like a normal person, but it's possible to get close to normal. The best standard for rehabilitation is being able to live independently, go to school (and pass various advancement exams after graduation, such as the junior high school entrance exam and the college entrance exam), work, date, and get married. In real life, many cerebral palsy patients can pass the college entrance exam to attend prestigious universities and key universities, and even study abroad.
