Patient's question:
I noticed she has her head tilted backward, hands behind her back, and doesn't turn her head much to find the sound. I had a CT done, and the result was brain underdevelopment. Now she is undergoing hyperbaric oxygen therapy and receiving brain infusion. I want to know if this can be cured? Is there a better method? What can we do at home?Doctor's answer:
Brain underdevelopment is related to a child's intellectual development. Children with this condition typically exhibit delayed intellectual development, and intelligence testing may place them in the moderate or below-average range. Alongside intellectual delays, there are noticeable impairments in abilities associated with intelligence, such as hearing, comprehension, and verbal skills. If a baby has poor responsiveness to sounds or delayed reactions to external stimuli, or if they have speech impairments, these are symptoms of brain underdevelopment.Stagnant physical development: Children with brain underdevelopment may also experience impaired physical development.
