How to deal with poor white matter development

Patient's question:

My son is currently 2.5 years old. He still cannot speak or walk. When we had a CT scan at the city hospital, the doctor said it was leukoencephalopathy and suspected cerebral palsy. My child often sticks out his tongue when trying to speak. What does this indicate? If it is indeed cerebral palsy, can it be treated at your hospital? What are the costs and how long does the treatment take?

Doctor's answer:

This is a sign of cerebral palsy. It is recommended that you maintain a calm attitude and take your child to the rehabilitation department of a regular hospital in a timely manner. Training should comprehensively utilize methods such as acupuncture, physical therapy, massage, and manipulation to promote the normal development of various system functions and reduce the degree of disability. Most diseases are caused by genetic factors, such as X-linked progressive myelin dysplasia; in a few cases with unknown causes, it is estimated to be related to premature infants.
