Question
The child experienced asphyxia at birth and was found to have abnormalities at 11 months old. The child cannot stand or walk independently and does not call for help.
Answer
Brain palsy is a comprehensive syndrome caused by non-progressive brain damage and developmental defects from conception to infancy, primarily characterized by motor disabilities and postural abnormalities. It often accompanies intellectual disabilities, epilepsy, sensory impairments, communication disorders, behavioral abnormalities, and other anomalies. It is generally recommended to actively treat the condition in early childhood, as the effectiveness diminishes with age. It is advised that parents pay attention to the patient’s rehabilitation training, which has the potential to achieve certain effects.
