Question
The child responds slightly late, can laugh, can locate sounds, does not actively grasp objects with both hands, cannot support the body in prone position, cannot roll over, leans forward in sitting position, and cannot stand unsupported. The muscle tone in the limbs is normal. A brain CT scan shows extracerebral fluid. The doctor diagnosed the child with brain injury syndrome, recommended hospitalization, and suggested using “head acupoint injections with medication” to improve the effectiveness of treatment.
Answer
Brain palsy treatment improves motor functions by increasing joint mobility, adjusting muscle tone, enhancing motor control, coordination, strength, and endurance. Additionally, medication can be used, with common drugs including brain nerve nutrition drugs and muscle relaxants. Medication should only be used when necessary, as children are troubled by neonatal diseases. Therefore, parents must take their children to the doctor immediately to avoid various misunderstandings. Prompt symptomatic treatment is necessary. For parents, it is important to provide sufficient care and attention to their children and to help them receive timely treatment for their diseases.
