Question
My two-month-old son was suddenly diagnosed with paralysis. I’m asking for possible causes, including whether it’s related to my mother’s complete diaphragmatic uterus, and whether my father’s long-term use of antiepileptic drugs has any impact.
Answer
Cerebral palsy is a syndrome caused by non-progressive brain damage and developmental defects from conception to infancy, primarily characterized by motor impairments and postural abnormalities. It often accompanies intellectual disabilities, epilepsy, sensory impairments, communication disorders, behavioral abnormalities, and other anomalies. It is recommended that parents pay attention to the patient’s rehabilitation training, as early treatment may yield certain effects.
