The best time to treat cerebral palsy?

summary

Cerebral palsy, for short, is a non progressive brain injury syndrome caused by various reasons from before birth to 1 month after birth. It is mainly manifested as central dyskinesia, dystonia, abnormal posture and reflex. When is the best time to treat cerebral palsy? Now let's take a look.

The best time to treat cerebral palsy?

First, the brain continues to develop after birth. Not only is the weight of the brain increasing (it is generally not close to the weight of the adult brain until the age of 7), but also the differentiation and development of nerve cells continue (it is generally completed at the age of 3, and it is close to the adult brain at the age of 8). Clinical practice shows that the rehabilitation treatment of children with cerebral palsy has a great effect within 1 year old, followed by the effect within 3 years old, and it is difficult to predict the effect after 8 years old.

Second: in the early stage, especially in infancy, children's dyskinesia and abnormal posture have not yet been finalized and are easy to correct. If abnormal posture and abnormal movement exist for a long time, it will lead to secondary muscle contracture, disuse muscle atrophy, and then lead to bone deformation, joint dislocation and other deformities, and the deformation and dislocation of bone and joint will aggravate the abnormal posture and movement, forming a vicious circle. The older the patients are, the more difficult the rehabilitation treatment is. Therefore, the treatment effect of cerebral palsy is the earlier the better.

Third: there is no so-called best time for the treatment of cerebral palsy, but the earlier the better. It is suggested that every child should do long-term and regular child health care no matter whether there are high-risk factors of cerebral palsy or not. The doctor observed the child's behavior and professionally judged whether there were problems in the child's development.

matters needing attention

1. Fish. Fish fat contains ω- 3 fatty acids, help brain. Eating fish also helps to strengthen the activity of nerve cells, thereby improving the ability of learning and memory. 2. Whole wheat products and brown rice. Brown rice contains a variety of vitamins (especially vitamin B1), which is very important to improve the cognitive ability of children with cerebral palsy. 3. Eggs. Egg protein is one of the best proteins in natural food, and egg yolk is rich in lecithin, calcium, phosphorus, iron and vitamin A, D, B, etc., which is beneficial to the brain development of children with cerebral palsy.
