Question

How should cerebral palsy in children be cared for?

Answer

The brain lesions in children with cerebral palsy are static, but the resulting neurological deficits cannot always be repaired. If proper treatment guidance is not provided in the early stages, abnormal posture and movement patterns may not be corrected, and may even lead to muscle spasms, skeletal and joint deformities, thereby increasing intellectual disabilities. Infants have excellent plasticity and compensatory abilities, and can achieve the best results with appropriate rehabilitation measures.
