Question
At what age is treatment for pediatric cerebral palsy most appropriate?
Answer
Generally, the best time for treating pediatric cerebral palsy is within the first year after birth, particularly within the first six months. During this period, brain development is rapid, making treatment more effective. However, even if a child has surpassed this golden period, appropriate rehabilitation training and treatment can still help improve symptoms. Parents should seek advice from professional doctors as early as possible to develop an individualized treatment plan for their child.
