Patient's question:
When my child was born, they had slightly low oxygen levels. Later at home, we noticed the child didn't cry or laugh and kept clenched fists. Their expression was also very vacant, looking abnormal. We took them to the hospital for a check-up, where it was diagnosed as cerebral palsy. This was simply a bolt from the blue for our whole family, and now we are all in great pain. How can cerebral palsy in children be cured?Doctor's answer:
In this case, you should go to a regular hospital's pediatric department for a brain CT or nuclear brain scan to determine if it is developmental brain deficiency. Cerebral palsy may be accompanied by intellectual disability, epilepsy, limb spasms, as well as visual, auditory, and language dysfunction. Cerebral palsy also long-term affects the ability to move autonomously, leading to an inability to sit up and roll over. Attention is not focused, they are not sociable, and some seem to be self-harming. Cerebral palsy is a relatively serious disease. Cerebral palsy refers to a syndrome caused by non-progressive brain damage due to certain reasons before birth, during birth, or in early infancy. Therefore, among all children with cerebral palsy, about 4 out of every 100 are of normal intelligence, with mild intellectual disability. Moderate hypoxia accounts for about 1/2, and severe intellectual disability also takes its place.
