Patient's question:
My child is now five months old, but I've noticed that he still cannot use his hands to grab things. After a thorough examination at the hospital, it was discovered that he has infantile brain. I would like to ask how it should be treated?Doctor's answer:
Cerebral palsy is a disease that is prone to occur in infants and young children. When an infant suffers from cerebral palsy, they often exhibit symptoms such as persistent crying, difficulty falling asleep, and nursing difficulties. As the child grows and develops, they may also experience symptoms such as intellectual disability, language impairments, visual impairments, and motor skill impairments. As the child ages, their muscle tone may also become abnormal, and symptoms such as joint deformities may reappear. In severe cases, muscle spasms, bone contractures, and meniscus injuries may occur. However, for children with cerebral palsy, it is essential to strive to stabilize their quality of life as much as possible.
