How to exercise for children with cerebral palsy

summary

My cousin's child is suffering from cerebral palsy. Now the child is one year old and five months old. Recently, my aunt took the child to the hospital for treatment. For children with cerebral palsy, we should treat them as soon as possible. Now I will tell you about how to exercise for children with cerebral palsy.

How to exercise for children with cerebral palsy

First of all: when the sick child can hold his neck and trunk with his hand and has certain control, the parents should hold his hip in a sitting position with one hand, and let his legs separate and put them in front and back of one side of ilium. This is conducive to the development of upper limb function.

Secondly: when children with cerebral palsy lie on the bed to play or sleep, they should take the lateral position, which is conducive to the relief of spastic muscle tension and the symmetry of limbs. It is easy to put their hands in front of their chest, put toys and hang some colorful balloons and bells in front of them.

Finally: the thumb function accounts for 60% of the whole finger, so parents should often give their children some spherical or round toys to grasp, or often pull the thumb outstretched, or make a thumb glove to make the thumb outstretched continuously, so as to be corrected.

matters needing attention

For children with cerebral palsy, rehabilitation training can be used in their daily life. The head of children with cerebral palsy is often biased to one side. Parents should always pay attention to make their head in the middle line when they are lying, holding, sitting or standing, especially when they are lying down with sandbags or soft objects on both sides of the head.
