Patient's question:
My nephew is 9 months old this year. He is a child with cerebral palsy. We are all very worried. We have taken him to the hospital for many treatments, but the results are not very good. The child's intelligence is abnormal. The doctor asked how should patients with cerebral palsy do rehabilitation training?Doctor's answer:
Hello, the treatment plan should aim to maximize the child's function and improve quality of life, minimize secondary joint deformities and soft tissue contractures, and attempt to delay or avoid surgery. Common treatment methods include physical therapy, which improves joint function by increasing joint mobility, regulating muscle tone, improving motor control, coordination, strength, and endurance, as well as enhancing self-care abilities.
