How is Cerebral Palsy Treated

Patient's question:

My child was born prematurely at 8 months, and they are twins, both boys. Now they are 1 year and 5 months old. Currently, my child cannot sit (only for a short while), crawl, stand, or walk. It has been confirmed that they have cerebral palsy. How should it be treated?

Doctor's answer:

I can only say it might be cerebral palsy. Specifically, the doctor must examine it before making a diagnosis. If the child is older and has other complications, the difficulty of treatment increases significantly, and recovery is not as good. The main treatments include surgery, rehabilitation training, and traditional Chinese medicine treatment. Your child is still young and does not need surgery. Comprehensive treatment should be the main choice. However, it is essential to select treatments that are effective and produce quick results. The older the cerebral palsy, the harder it is to treat. Therefore, we need to act quickly and not waste any time.
