Question
My child is about to start kindergarten, but he walks unsteadily, often falls, moves slowly, speaks unclearly, expresses emotions less frequently, has a vacant gaze, and has delayed intellectual development. After being examined by the hospital, it was diagnosed as cerebral palsy. Can this condition be treated?
Answer
Cerebral palsy is a severe condition with no definitive cure at present; however, symptoms can be improved through treatment and care. Both traditional and Western medical treatments may help alleviate cerebral palsy symptoms. Children with cerebral palsy should be kept warm, wearing soft and comfortable clothing. Maintain a quiet and clean environment, and open windows for ventilation regularly. Many cerebral palsy patients experience difficulties with chewing and swallowing, which may require special dietary care. It is recommended to seek examination and treatment at a specialized hospital as soon as possible to avoid delayed treatment and ensure the child receives the necessary support.
