Patient's question:
My baby is not very active. Usually, when I communicate and play with him, he doesn't pay attention. Some people say he might have cerebral palsy. What are the common characteristics of this disease? My child is only one year old. What symptoms might he show?Doctor's answer:
Using one hand to grasp objects and demonstrating asymmetric autonomous movement in a 1-year-old infant suggests cerebral palsy. After the medical institution determines the diagnosis of cerebral palsy in a child, rehabilitation training should be started as soon as possible. Intervention for children with brain damage is primarily carried out through the main input pathways of vision, hearing, and skin sensation, and appropriate information stimulation is provided. The three main output manifestations of gross motor, fine motor, and language show slightly more development than normal movement. Early functional training.
