Patient's question:
My nephew just turned 40 days old, and his behavior is always very abnormal. It feels like he's developing very slowly. We took him to the hospital for a check-up, and they found out he has cerebral palsy. We are all very worried. The child is still so young, and we don't want him to suffer through treatment, but there's nothing we can do. It's making us feel very anxious.Doctor's answer:
Children with cerebral palsy generally cannot be completely cured if the diagnosis is accurate. At the current stage, the best approach is to improve as much as possible through rehabilitation training. Nowadays, many places diagnose normal children with individual differences, motor development delays, and mental development delays as cerebral palsy, which is incorrect. Therefore, diagnosis is very important, and it is recommended to wait until after the age of 1-2 years before making a diagnosis of cerebral palsy. Generally, there are specialized hospitals for treating cerebral palsy.
