What are the treatments for mild cerebral palsy in children?

Cerebral palsy is a difficult and complicated disease, some of which are congenital and some are acquired, caused by brain damage. Of course, there are many causes of cerebral palsy. The condition of cerebral palsy will develop gradually. It is a relatively mild process in the early stage. The treatment of children is relatively simple. Here we will explain the treatment methods for mild cerebral palsy in children.

1. Psychotherapy. Children are relatively young, but they can also receive psychological treatment. Children with this disorder often have emotional disorders, abnormal behavior, and cognitive impairment. In view of the psychological barriers of children with cerebral palsy, we should respect patients in comprehensive treatment, listen carefully, understand, comfort and encourage them, and stimulate their active participation while correcting their limb dysfunction. Improving the therapeutic training effect is also a treatment method for cerebral palsy. Health education should be provided to improve the psychological state of children. We should actively communicate with them, gradually overcome their paranoia and dependence, establish independence, self-confidence, strength and upward confidence, cultivate their self-care ability, and enable them to adapt to society.

2. Physical therapy: Children with cerebral palsy receive physical therapy, such as electroacupuncture, muscle stimulation therapy device, hydrotherapy, hot and cold compresses, etc. The main purpose is to regulate function, relieve contracture, stimulate low muscle tone, promote circulation, maintain and expand joint mobility, increase muscle strength, and thus improve balance and gait.

3. Use of orthopedic devices: In the training of children with cerebral palsy, the use of braces is very important. For example, young children with syntrophic cerebral palsy have spasms in the posterior calf muscles of their lower limbs, which makes the heels unable to touch the ground, and their ankle joints are unstable and have flat feet. Foot and ankle orthopedic braces can be used.

4. Exercise therapy: According to the different clinical classifications of atrophic cerebral palsy, targeted training is carried out, including training in gross motor skills, fine motor skills, balance and coordination. Build confidence in overcoming difficulties, give children a healthy mentality, and lay a good foundation for their future return to society.

5. Nerve targeted repair therapy: The treatment site is accurately determined through the CNS targeted positioning therapy device, so that the nerve growth factor acts on the damaged site through intervention. Activate dormant nerve cells, realize self-differentiation and renewal of nerve cells, replace damaged and dead nerve cells, rebuild neural circuits, and promote the redevelopment of organs.

The above is the treatment method for mild cerebral palsy in children. Only by finding a reasonable treatment method, through external treatment and psychotherapy, can we achieve the effect of taking both internal and external factors into consideration and treating the symptoms and the root cause. The treatment method for mild cerebral palsy in children is that simple. I hope it can provide some help for patients with cerebral palsy.
