Question
The baby has been constantly vomiting milk lately, finding it difficult to breastfeed, and showing symptoms of stiff limbs, a cold expression, and a lack of the lively spirit they once had. Grandma thinks it might be cerebral palsy, and I’m very worried. What are the symptoms of infantile cerebral palsy?
Answer
Under normal circumstances, infants are quite active in their various motor and cognitive activities. If an infant shows a marked refusal to breastfeed or difficulty in breastfeeding, along with symptoms such as stiff limbs, a cold expression, dullness, and relatively slow development, this situation may be considered as cerebral palsy. It is recommended to visit a specialist doctor for further examination and assessment as soon as possible. Rehabilitation training is necessary once diagnosed.
