Question

What are some possible symptoms in children that might be considered signs of pediatric cerebral palsy?

Answer

This condition is generally curable. Therapists should develop a home training program for the child and their parents, focusing on reducing function and preventing secondary injuries. For children with particularly severe conditions, the main goals should be to simplify nursing care and alleviate family stress. This includes understanding the child’s condition and daily arrangements; targeted muscle and joint mobility training; stretching treatments to relieve spastic muscles. It is recommended to have a light diet, avoid greasy foods, quit smoking and drinking, avoid overexertion, drink plenty of water, eat more fruits and vegetables, and engage in more outdoor activities to maintain health.
