Patient's question:
My baby is a premature infant, born prematurely due to premature rupture of membranes and cesarean section. After birth, the doctor said she had ischemic and iron-deficient brain damage. Is this the same as ischemic and iron-deficient encephalopathy? If a child suffers from ischemic and iron-deficient encephalopathy, what are the symptoms? What kind of sequelae will it leave behind? What are the symptoms?Doctor's answer:
How old is the child? Let's wait and see for now and avoid rushing into treatment. Cerebral palsy usually occurs before birth or during infancy, with causes including: birth injuries, neonatal jaundice, brain hypoxia, and premature birth. The main symptoms are increased muscle tone, difficulty with abduction, and in severe cases, muscle rigidity, contractures, and joints maintaining a flexed position. In mild cases, fine motor skills in the hands are poor, and the heels cannot touch the ground when walking. These patients often have language development and articulation disorders, as well as strabismus. About one-third of patients experience varying degrees of seizures and intellectual disabilities. Cerebral palsy can lead to delayed motor development. If the child is still not active or mobile after three months, and shows no crawling movements when prone, or if the hands remain tightly clenched after four to six months of age, symptoms such as hurried gait or scissor gait may be observed. You can give the child Longna Kang Longna Kang to promote brain development, and there is hope that the child's speech, walking, and intelligence can return to normal.
