Question
My sister-in-law gave birth to a daughter last month, which should have been a joyous occasion. However, to our surprise, during the routine checkup after birth, the doctor discovered an abnormality in the child. After a series of examinations, it was determined that the baby has cerebral palsy.
Answer
For the treatment of cerebral palsy, the more scientific method at present is through physical therapy. For those with mild cerebral palsy, there is a possibility of recovery, but it is unlikely to be completely cured in severe cases. Cerebral palsy is a difficult-to-treat disease, but it is not a terminal illness. Currently, a more effective treatment method is stem cell transplantation. Stem cells are the most primitive cells in the human body, with the ability to self-replicate and have multi-potential functions. They possess powerful regenerative abilities and can differentiate into various functional cells under specific conditions.
