Patient's question:
My baby is now 4 years old. I recently feel that he might have cerebral palsy, but I am not very familiar with the symptoms of cerebral palsy. I would like to consult a doctor. What are the manifestations of pediatric cerebral palsy?Doctor's answer:
Typically, cerebral palsy occurs in infancy, for example, the body may be soft or stiff, spontaneous motor skills decline, delayed or no response to names, abnormal head circumference, poor weight gain, and hand fixation. Parents need to remember the specific manifestations of their child during infancy to differentiate it from other diseases. It is best to seek medical attention as soon as possible to investigate the cause, for early diagnosis and early treatment, to help the child recover as quickly as possible.
