Question

How to handle a baby’s enlarged ventricles after birth?

Answer

If a mild hydrocephalus is detected in the baby’s brain on imaging, and there are no obvious symptoms, general observation is usually sufficient. However, if the baby shows delays in motor and intellectual development, active treatment should be pursued. It is recommended to seek professional rehabilitation institutions for comprehensive treatment using acupuncture, massage PT, external counterpulsation, and physical therapy to achieve better results.
