Patient's question:
My child is almost one year old now, but he is not as flexible as other children's. Up to now, he still cannot crawl and cannot call "Mom" or "Dad." He can only make some monosyllabic sounds and drool. Today, I took him to the hospital for a test, and the doctor said he has symptoms of cerebral palsy. I'm very worried.What are the clinical manifestations of pediatric cerebral palsy?
Doctor's answer:
Cerebral palsy in children is caused by brain damage in infants at birth, resulting from factors such as premature birth, drowning, or jaundice. 70% of children with cerebral palsy suffer from severe pain-type cerebral palsy, but their intelligence is the same as that of normal children. Through proper treatment, the abnormal walking posture of children with cerebral palsy can be stabilized. A very small number of children with cerebral palsy may also suffer from epilepsy, intellectual disabilities, and other conditions. Parents need to take care of their children from many aspects, both mentally and physically. The greatest kindness is not to abandon or abandon them.
