How to Rehabilitate a Baby’s Brain Injury

Baby brain injury can be recovered through correct placement posture, sitting training, sitting balance training, bed training, crawling training and body position transfer.
1. Correct placement posture: the baby’s whole body joints maintain the regular posture, with soft pillows placed under the armpits, palms upward, and the upper limbs rotated outward and slightly abducted. The lower limbs are slightly bent and the insteps are flexed to prevent foot drop.
2. Sitting posture training: put the baby’s feet flat on the ground, legs and buttocks at right angles. The baby’s seat should not be too soft to support his/her weight. Sit for 30 minutes once a day and gradually increase the sitting time.
3. Sitting Balance Training: Keep your baby in a sitting position, rotate the torso diagonally, and cross-train across the midline, once a day for 20 minutes.
4. Bed training: let the baby lie flat, parents use their hands to drive the baby’s hands to extend the elbow, lift, turn left and right. Let the hip joint rotate inside and outside, and perform bridging exercise once a day for 20 minutes each time.
5. Crawling training and position transfer: the baby can transfer the position through the transfer of the center of gravity, from the sitting position to the semi-kneeling position, and then transferred to the kneeling position, once a day crawling exercise, each time for 20 minutes.
The damage to the central nervous system of babies with brain injury is irreversible, and it is difficult to restore the relevant functions through medication. Therefore, limb function training should be carried out as soon as possible along with rehabilitation care to promote substantial recovery of the baby.
