Newborn babies may have the possibility of developing cerebral palsy. For parents, if a baby has cerebral palsy, it is equivalent to the destruction of their entire life. Timely detection of whether the baby has cerebral palsy, so that one can rest assured, and timely treatment of the disease is the key. So, what are the symptoms of cerebral palsy in newborns?
If a newborn baby has cerebral palsy, it may not be noticeable in the first few months, but it can be clearly detected by the third month. Because babies are not very active after three months of birth, they lack interest in various sports and are very dull every day. After the fourth month, the baby's hands are still tightly held and unable to lift their head. At the same time, it can be clearly seen that the baby's language development is delayed, there is strabismus, and even convulsions occur.
Infants may suffer from cerebral palsy before and after birth, mainly due to injuries caused by childbirth, cerebral hypoxia, neonatal jaundice, premature birth, and other causes. So after the baby is born, it is necessary to undergo a comprehensive physical examination, and parents also need to observe whether the baby has symptoms of cerebral palsy in their daily lives.
It is recommended that when parents discover symptoms of cerebral palsy in their infants, they should take them to the hospital for examination in a timely manner, to gain a deeper understanding of the degree, causes, types, and other aspects of cerebral palsy in infants, and seek treatment as soon as possible.
