Patient's question:
My nephew was extremely cute when he was born, but when I visited him this year, I noticed he didn't seem as energetic as a typical child, and he also had difficulty speaking clearly. Later, my aunt said it was because he has cerebral palsy. I want to know what are the symptoms of infantile cerebral palsy?Doctor's answer:
The symptoms of cerebral palsy in children include language disorders, intellectual disabilities, and postural abnormalities, among others. If the infant is very young, these symptoms may not manifest. The symptoms of cerebral palsy in newborns typically do not show smiling, lifting the head, clenched fingers, or opening their hands within 2-3 months; they may not roll over by 4-5 months, sit up by 8 months, or even grasp objects, nor put their hands to their lips, among other symptoms. Improving joint function and enhancing self-care abilities can be achieved by increasing joint mobility, adjusting muscle tone, and improving motor control, coordination, strength, and endurance. The occurrence of cerebral palsy can lead to many symptoms of motor disorders, sensory disorders, and language disorders. This is one of the symptoms. It is necessary to treat cerebral palsy in a timely manner and avoid actions. It is recommended that you visit a regular hospital for a check-up.
