Patient's question:
My child feels much slower in development compared to other children and cannot walk like them yet. Previously, standing was difficult, but now they can walk by swaying side to side. They always seem to have their heels slightly off the ground. After checking at the hospital, it was diagnosed as cerebral palsy in children. I am looking for methods of rehabilitation treatment. How is cerebral palsy in children treated with rehabilitation?Doctor's answer:
Cerebral palsy in children, you can take him to the neurology outpatient department of the hospital for examination, and then undergo nutritional nerve therapy. It is generally best to go to one of the three major hospitals in your area. I suggest you can register for the systematic rehabilitation training in the department of rehabilitation in a regular hospital. This is a slow process. Please ask the elderly and their families to be very patient and take it slow.Additionally, the most important thing is: follow the doctor's advice upon discharge, continue with active medication, take the medicine on time and in the prescribed dosage, and avoid stopping, switching, increasing, decreasing, and so on. Please strictly adhere to the doctor's advice for treatment.
The treatment of cerebral palsy is not just about orthopedic surgery. Orthopedic surgery requires moderate muscle tone reduction and new muscle balance, without over-correcting, which may lead to new deformities.
