Question

I’ve noticed that a little boy from the neighbor’s house is now over three years old, but he still walks unsteadily, can’t speak, and his reactions are rather slow. I heard he has pediatric cerebral palsy. The child is quite cute, but it’s a pity. What causes pediatric cerebral palsy and why does it happen like this?

Answer

The causes of pediatric cerebral palsy include prenatal factors (such as congenital malformations, genetic defects, intrauterine infections, etc.), intrapartum factors (such as difficult labor, umbilical cord prolapse, etc.), and postpartum factors (such as neonatal jaundice, intracranial hemorrhage, etc.).
