Question
On the 20th day of birth, a newborn baby exhibited twitching in the limbs, corners of the mouth, and eyes. The child was previously treated at Hunan Provincial Children’s Hospital. How should one handle brain edema and intracranial infection caused by cytomegalovirus?
Answer
If the infant shows symptoms of upward eye rolling, it requires attention. It is advisable to bring the child to a pediatric neurorehabilitation department for motor assessment, brainstem auditory evoked potentials, and visual evoked potentials. Early rehabilitation treatment is recommended. Our department offers comprehensive rehabilitation treatments, primarily focusing on acupuncture therapy, which can effectively improve cerebral blood circulation, promote brain cell growth, repair damaged cells, activate dormant neurons, correct abnormal posture, improve muscle tone, enhance motor function, vision, and hearing.
