Question

What are the reasons for a newborn to suffer from cerebral palsy?

Answer

The possible causes of cerebral palsy include preterm birth, secondhand smoke exposure, high bilirubinemia, and neonatal central nervous system diseases. Although maternal smoking during pregnancy may be related to the occurrence of cerebral palsy, not all cases can be attributed to this factor. Early detection and treatment are crucial for the recovery of children with cerebral palsy.
