How to treat cerebral palsy in general

summary

A neighbor in our neighborhood, his son, when he was very young, because of the untimely treatment of fever, has now become cerebral palsy. Now the child is growing up, and still can't take care of himself. The whole person is silly and looks very pitiful. Now let's understand how to treat cerebral palsy in general.

How to treat cerebral palsy in general

First, the treatment of cerebral palsy should improve motor function and enhance self-care ability by increasing joint range of motion, adjusting muscle tension, improving motor control ability, coordination ability, strength and endurance. Commonly used techniques include: postural therapy, soft tissue stretching, muscle tension adjustment, functional active activity intensive training, muscle strength and endurance training, balance and coordination control, physical factor adjuvant therapy (Physiotherapy), etc. Orthosis is often used in the rehabilitation of cerebral palsy to limit abnormal joint activity, improve stability, help control muscle spasm, maintain muscle length, prevent deformity, and assist in improving motor function.

Second: for patients with cerebral palsy, it is recommended to treat them at the early stage of their illness, which will greatly improve the treatment effect. The vast majority of them can delay the development of the disease, and the disease is relatively stable. During the treatment, they should not be interrupted from time to time, but insist on treatment.

Third: cerebral palsy is a substantial damage to the brain. At present, there is no special treatment. Except for drug control when epileptic seizures occur, most of the other symptoms are symptomatic treatment. We should carry out early intellectual and psychological education and training. Comprehensive treatment should be used, including intelligence and language training, physical therapy, physical therapy, acupuncture, massage, stent and plaster. Orthopedic surgery is only suitable for patients with spastic, moderate intelligence, over 5 years old and ineffective non-surgical treatment. The purpose of operation is to reduce spasm, improve muscle balance, correct deformity and stabilize joint.

matters needing attention

If cerebral palsy patients want to have therapeutic effect, they must start treatment at the beginning of illness, and persist in long-term treatment, so as to control the disease, and at the same time, they should do some training to improve motor function, so they must see a doctor in time when they find that they have cerebral palsy.
