Patient's question:
The child has been very healthy since birth, rarely getting sick or taking medicine. However, recently it was noticed that the child walks a bit awkwardly and doesn't respond much, always making "aaah" sounds. They also refuse to turn. Taking him to the hospital for a thorough examination, the doctor said he has cerebral palsy. Later, some treatments were tried, but they didn't help at all. He was given a lot of Western and Chinese medicine, and now wants to know what issues should be paid attention to? What should be noted when treating pediatric cerebral palsy?Doctor's answer:
Cerebral palsy is the full name of brain paralysis, referring to a disease that results from damage to the brain substance in children due to various causes (such as infection, skin abrasion, trauma, etc.), leading to non-progressive, central motor dysfunction and eventually deteriorating. Food should be easy to digest and absorb, rich in nutrients, and high-protein foods should be selected. Protein is the foundation of intellectual activity and is closely related to brain memory and thinking. Milk, soy milk, eggs, yogurt, meat, etc., are all foods rich in protein. Additionally, foods high in vitamins should be chosen.
