Patient's question:
The neighbor's aunt had a baby, who is now two years old. The child suffers from cerebral palsy. I want to ask the doctor how effective the rehabilitation and correction of abnormal postures are for pediatric cerebral palsy, whether the cost will be particularly high, and whether there will be any aftereffects after treatment.Doctor's answer:
In the rehabilitation process for children with cerebral palsy, if the methods are not appropriate, it may lead to serious complications. The child may exert force where it is not needed and use excessive force where it is not required. This is because their central nervous system has been damaged to varying degrees, causing an imbalance between nerve conduction and muscle activity, resulting in abnormal force. The more severe the abnormal force, the more pronounced the abnormal posture will be. Abnormal force and abnormal posture are directly proportional to each other.
