What are the main causes of pediatric cerebral palsy? Can smoking lead to children developing cerebral palsy? Some children with cerebral palsy, who are already five or six years old, still cannot walk steadily. What are the underlying reasons behind these phenomena?

Answers

Cerebral palsy, also known as brain palsy or spastic paralysis, refers to a syndrome caused by damage or injury to the brain before, during, or within one month after birth, when the brain has not yet matured. It is primarily characterized by motor and posture disorders, often accompanied by epilepsy, intellectual disability, and language disorders. Treatment can be carried out using various biomechanical methods based on the principle of correctable motor posture abnormalities. Follow medical instructions for treatment. Surgery is only considered when the patient’s condition is very severe, as it can alleviate symptoms but recovery is crucial, and it is important to invest in rehabilitation.
