Many parents are reluctant to believe that their children are sick due to lack of parenting knowledge, and when they come to the clinic, they often miss the best recovery period. Therefore, as a parent, you should know the normal child’s motor development age. For example, a 3-month-old child can hold his head upright, roll over at about 4 months, reach out and grab things at 5 months, sit upright at 6 to 7 months, and crawl at 8 months. Parents can compare their child with other children around them and regularly see a pediatrician to evaluate their child’s motor development. Misdiagnosis of “calcium deficiency” Children with brain injury often have impaired calcium and phosphorus metabolism, so it is common for cerebral palsy to be combined with “calcium deficiency”. However, many parents only see the “calcium deficiency” as a superficial phenomenon and do not consider the underlying cause. If the child has a simple calcium deficiency, the symptoms should be excessive sweating, easy to be frightened, posterior occipital baldness, and rib cage exostosis, etc. There should be no muscle tension, stiff and inflexible limbs, or abnormal posture. Many parents find that their child has a soft neck early on and go to the hospital, where doctors combine the child’s medical history, examination, and clinical symptoms to confirm that the child has “brain damage. Parents think that their child was born prematurely or is always sick, should be weaker than normal children, and wait for a long time to see, but the child still can not sit at the age of 1 year old, only to consult the doctor. It is a pity that such a child, if treatment could have been started at the early consultation, might have fully recovered by this time. Even if the child could recover now, it would take longer and be more difficult to treat, and it might leave sequelae. There are many cases of this kind of fluke mentality. In fact, as long as there are high-risk factors such as prematurity, low weight, jaundice, obstructed labor, and asphyxia, and there are neurodevelopmental abnormalities such as backward head tilting, inability to extend the fist, and stiffness of the limbs, brain injury can generally be judged. Over-belief in imaging There are many parents and even non-rehabilitation doctors who over-believe in imaging, believing that if there is no problem with cranial MRI or CT, there is no problem with the child, thus delaying the condition. Little do they know that cranial images only represent the shadow of the brain and cannot represent the function of the brain. The treatment of cerebral palsy is mainly comprehensive rehabilitation therapy, which is based on functional training, massage, electrotherapy, wax therapy, acupuncture, acupoint injection, etc. Parents are often overly concerned about their children’s suffering in the treatment and blindly seek medical help, expecting to relieve the disease through “injections and medication”. The drugs that nourish the nerve cells are only auxiliary, and there is no drug that can cure the disease, so don’t believe in any miracle cure. Some doctors over-exaggerate the “effectiveness” of surgery, and parents also put their children’s hopes for “cure” on surgery, while neglecting post-operative rehabilitation, resulting in a part of the children’s functional improvement is not obvious or “relapse This has led to a lack of functional improvement or “relapse” in some children. Some medical professionals emphasize that exercise training can replace everything; some doctors let all children with cerebral palsy do single hyperbaric oxygen therapy regardless of the reason, because children with cerebral palsy need comprehensive rehabilitation, and the single nature of treatment affects the efficacy of children. Neglect of family rehabilitation For children with cerebral palsy, the combination of medical rehabilitation, family rehabilitation and social rehabilitation should be especially emphasized. Along with medical rehabilitation, guiding parents to master the knowledge of rehabilitation and correcting abnormal postures in daily life is very necessary to promote the child’s motor development. For example, for children with sluggish movement, do not hold them face to face, but let them face forward and hold them with both hands. This will control the child’s head backward and the upper limbs dorsal extension.
