Question
The child is only 2 years old and cannot speak, dribbles, laughs foolishly every day, and does not respond strongly to any stimuli. Could this be a symptom of congenital cerebral palsy?
Answer
Congenital cerebral palsy is typically caused by non-progressive brain damage due to various perinatal reasons. Traditional treatment methods include medication and surgical treatments. Medication primarily targets neural nutrition and vitamins as well as gangliosides, but the effects are limited. Surgical treatment is mainly used to correct damage to limb muscles and nerve roots, reduce muscle tension, but the results are not ideal, especially for nerve root damage surgery.
