Patient's question:
My child is almost one year old now, but he is not as flexible as other children's. He still cannot crawl or call "daddy" or "mommy" now. He can only make some monosyllabic sounds and drool. Today, I took him to the hospital for a test, and the doctor said he has symptoms of cerebral palsy. I'm very worried. What are the clinical manifestations of pediatric cerebral palsy?Doctor's answer:
Performance in the neonatal period decreased, with poor sucking ability and feeding response. Over three months, foot kicking in the lower limbs significantly reduced, or legs kicked simultaneously. Hemiplegic cerebral palsy is often characterized by reduced parasitic activity. Children with the disease rarely move their limbs, especially the lower limbs, often, bilateral paralysis, quadriplegia, etc. Due to difficulties in voluntary movement, movements are stiff and uncoordinated, and abnormal movement patterns frequently occur. The hypotonic type is sluggish, soft, and too quiet.
