Question

Hello! My three-year-old child has hydrocephalus, with the ventricles of the brain significantly enlarged and deformed, the grooves and fissures of the brain compressed and shallow, and the brain tissue obviously compressed and deformed. The cerebellum and brainstem show no obvious abnormalities in morphological structure and signal intensity, and the midline structures are not displaced. How should we handle this situation?

Answer

Hello! The condition of your child is due to hydrocephalus causing compression of the brain tissue, resulting in motor function impairment. The treatment primarily involves comprehensive therapy, using Chinese herbal supplements to promote hydration and remove blood stasis, combined with acupuncture, massage, rehabilitation, physical therapy, and external anti-treatment methods to have a synergistic effect in promoting the child’s recovery. Please note that during the treatment process, various factors need to be considered comprehensively, so there is no single medication or therapy that can completely solve the problem; comprehensive treatment is necessary.
