Question

What are the treatment methods for neonatal brachial plexus injury?

Answer

Hello, I’m glad to help you with that. Recovery from nerve damage is very challenging. Typically, we would first try physical therapy methods such as acupuncture and massage to alleviate symptoms. If these are not effective, we can attempt electrical acupuncture stimulation and other related therapies, with specific treatment methods varying according to the extent of the injury. Currently, complete recovery from nerve damage is not possible, but we can conduct nerve surgery facial examinations, nervous system examinations, and color Doppler ultrasound to understand the condition of the injury. In addition, massage therapy, acupuncture, the use of nerve nutrient supplements, and functional exercises can also help promote recovery. Please note that specific treatment methods should be assessed and diagnosed based on individual circumstances.
