Patient's question:
The child is two and a half years old. From three and a half months of careful examination, it was discovered that the child has cerebral palsy. They have been receiving treatment for over two years with poor results, and the child still cannot stand. They also have difficulty speaking. Over the past two and a half years, they have had three MRI scans, all showing cerebellar atrophy with no improvement.How can cerebellar atrophy interfere with the child's life at such a young age? Are there any surgical procedures or other medications that can effectively treat cerebellar atrophy?
Doctor's answer:
The current situation has been confirmed as incurable. At least with the current medical technology, there is no possibility of improvement, so please make your own decision. If you really can't let go, it is recommended to check at a hospital abroad to see the situation and whether it can be treated. There is no expectation of cure, so I wish you a speedy recovery. Cerebral palsy in children causes significant harm, so it is recommended that the family take the child to a specialist for a follow-up examination and seek treatment under the guidance of a doctor. In daily life, it is okay to give the child some juice, which is beneficial for digestion, vitamins, and preventing stomach problems. I hope the child can recover as soon as possible!
