Patient's question:
The son has rarely smiled since he was born. He doesn't laugh much even when he's being tickled, and feeding him is also quite difficult. Other children are lively and energetic, which makes me feel extremely upset. A few days ago, I took my son to the hospital for a check-up. The doctor said he has cerebral palsy and I want to know the causes of infantile cerebral palsy.Doctor's answer:
The causes of cerebral palsy in children are many, such as rubella infection in pregnant women, syphilis or cytomegalovirus infection during pregnancy, severe anemia, pregnancy poisoning, and frequent work in a radiation environment; severe asphyxia at birth, severe jaundice, and birth trauma leading to intracranial hemorrhage in infants; after birth, infants may suffer from various central systemic diseases or frequently experience persistent convulsions. These reasons may lead to brain damage or developmental defects in children, resulting in the occurrence of cerebral palsy in children.
