How Effective Is the Correction of Abnormal Posture in Pediatric Cerebral Palsy Recovery? What About the Costs and Potential Side Effects After Treatment?

Question

The aunt from next door just had a baby, who is now two years old and has cerebral palsy. I would like to ask the doctor about the effectiveness of correcting abnormal posture in pediatric cerebral palsy recovery, and whether the costs will be particularly high? Will there be any side effects after treatment?

Answer

It is not recommended to blindly undergo training for the correction of abnormal posture in pediatric cerebral palsy recovery; instead, a specific rehabilitation assessment is needed. Each child’s functional disability issues are different, so a better recovery plan should be formulated based on the assessment results. The effectiveness and costs will vary depending on the child’s condition. There may be varying degrees of recovery after treatment, but whether there will be any side effects depends on the specific situation.
