Patient's question:
During the pregnancy, my partner experienced some physical discomfort and took some medication. Now that the child is almost two years old, he is not walking well and is a bit slower than his peers. After a thorough examination at the hospital, it was diagnosed that he suffers from cerebral palsy. What kind of help is needed: What are the symptoms of childhood cerebral palsy?Doctor's answer:
The symptoms of childhood cerebral palsy include motor disorders, postural disorders, language disorders, visual and auditory disorders, growth and development disorders, dental growth and development disorders, oral and facial dysfunction, emotional and behavioral disorders, epilepsy, etc. Approximately 39% to 50% of children with cerebral palsy develop epilepsy due to fixed lesions in the brain. Children with severe intellectual impairment have an even lower incidence of epilepsy. Wishing the patient a speedy recovery and good health!
