Patient's question:
Colleagues carried a child for ten months, but when the baby was born, it didn't cry—it was a boy. Six months later, the child only does nothing but eat milk, with vacant eyes. The hospital said it has cerebral palsy. Can such a condition be treated? Or will it be like this for life? Can newborn cerebral palsy be treated? Or will it always be this way?Doctor's answer:
Hello! Prenatal factors are the most common, including genetic and chromosomal diseases, congenital infections, brain malformations or developmental abnormalities, fetal brain ischemia, and hypoxia caused by periventricular leukomalacia or basal ganglia damage. Perinatal factors refer to brain injuries that occur within one week of birth, including brain edema, neonatal shock, brain hemorrhage, sepsis or central nervous system infection, as well as hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy. Perinatal factors may be a significant cause of cerebral palsy in premature infants. Essentially, they are difficult to treat.
