Patient's question:
My nephew is now eight and a half months old, but he still can't sit up straight and doesn't seem as agile as other children. His gaze is also dull. When he went to the hospital for a check-up, they said he had cerebral palsy. I want to know what causes neonatal cerebral palsy?Doctor's answer:
Still unable to sit after eight months, his eyes are vacant, which is a symptom of cerebral palsy. Hello, the causes of neonatal cerebral palsy: genetic factors (chromosomal number abnormalities or structural abnormalities, genetic mutations, etc.), maternal infections during pregnancy, environmental factors during pregnancy, prolonged labor during delivery, delayed birth caused by fetal intrauterine distress, failure to receive timely treatment, neonatal asphyxia, neonatal vitamin K deficiency, leading to intracranial hemorrhage.
