Question
Can a child born with cerebral palsy walk and talk as they grow up?
Answer
Recovery treatment after cerebral palsy is a very long process, and it takes only 1-2 months to see any significant effects. Cerebral palsy is a brain disease caused by hypoxia-ischemia before or during birth, leading to regional brain cell apoptosis. Theoretically, the apoptosis of nerve cells is irreversible, and recovery treatment can only aim to restore certain functions as much as possible. The effectiveness of medication also varies from person to person, with significant individual differences, so it’s best to persist with the recovery process. Long-term recovery requires psychological preparation.
