How to treat cerebral palsy better

  Cerebral palsy is a non-progressive brain injury syndrome caused by various reasons from before birth to within one month after birth, and its early manifestations include persistent crying, difficulty sleeping, and mental symptoms such as hyper-arousal. The motor disorder is characterized by a delay in motor development compared to the same age, reduced active movement, abnormal muscle tone, abnormal posture, abnormal reflexes, etc. Therefore, parents of newborns must pay close attention to the developmental changes of their children to rule out the possibility of cerebral palsy in a timely manner.  If you find that your baby’s development is different from normal, you need to go to the hospital for some tests, such as routine urine, blood and stool tests, biochemical electrolytes and other routine tests for newborns, and auxiliary tests such as electroencephalogram and brain CT. According to statistics, 30%-50% of children with cerebral palsy will have mental retardation, 25%-50% will have epilepsy, and some will have abnormal vision and language disorders, which are not conducive to the development of a normal child. At present, many hospitals take medication and rehabilitation for pediatric cerebral palsy, but the effect is still slow if these two methods are combined, and it may be accompanied by the child’s whole life.  Therefore, many parents of children with cerebral palsy are eager to have surgery to get rid of cerebral palsy as soon as possible. The main treatment methods that are effective are peripheral nerve narrowing, selective posterior crural nerve root dissection and carotid sympathetic nerve net stripping, etc. In clinical practice, many children with cerebral palsy have been relieved through surgery.
