Patient's question:
When the baby was just born, something was wrong. She rarely cried or smiled. When feeding, her sucking strength was weak, and her gaze was very vacant. Up to now, she speaks with unclear pronunciation, walks unsteadily, and has slightly low intelligence. After checking at the hospital, she was diagnosed with cerebral palsy. What are the early symptoms of pediatric cerebral palsy?Doctor's answer:
Hello, symptoms of cerebral palsy: Sudden stiffness in children: It is difficult to dress a child in certain positions, such as when they are lying on their back, bending their body, or hugging them. Flaccidity: The baby's head and neck are soft and cannot be lifted. When held in the air, their limbs hang down. The baby rarely moves. Developmental delay: Learning to lift their head, sit, and use their hands is slower than that of their peers. They may use one part of their body more than another, such as: some children often use one hand instead of both hands. Poor feeding: Difficulty with sucking and swallowing. The tongue often pushes milk and food out. Difficulty closing the mouth.
