1, the early harm of cerebral palsy
1. Abnormal muscle tone: Muscle tone increases rapidly, hands and feet twitch involuntarily, and teeth are closed. Hypotonia is often a transitional form of other types of cerebral palsy at a certain age.
2. Oral and dental dysfunction: Some children with cerebral palsy have weakness in sucking, difficulty in swallowing and chewing, poor lip closure, frequent salivation, frequent spitting, frequent mouth opening, tongue sticking out, and some suffer from dental caries or tooth hypoplasia. These symptoms are most common in children with wriggling hands and feet.
3. Abnormal exercise: the development of exercise is backward, the active exercise is reduced, the exercise ability is lower than that of normal babies of the same age, and the self-control ability of exercise is poor. Lighter is inflexible or clumsy. In severe cases, people can't hold their heads up, turn over, sit, stand and walk, their limbs are backward in movement, voluntary movement is difficult, their movements are stiff, uncoordinated and asymmetrical, and abnormal movement patterns and voluntary movement appear.
3. Abnormal posture: It is related to abnormal muscle tension and the disappearance of the original reflex delay, and the fingers bend like fists. Stand with your toes on the ground, and walk with your feet on the ground in a scissors-like gait.
4. Abnormal reflexes: often manifested as the disappearance of primitive reflexes such as foraging and sucking, and the weakening or delayed appearance of protective reflexes such as hugs. However, spastic babies have active or hyperactive deep reflexes.
5. Epilepsy: Early symptoms of cerebral palsy include seizures. According to literature reports, the incidence of seizures complicated with epilepsy varies greatly. At least 65,438+0/4-65,438+0/3 or 65,438+0/4 children have had seizures at different ages. Spastic quadriplegia, hemiplegia, monoplegia and mental retardation are more common, and hand-foot peristalsis is more common.
2. How to prevent cerebral palsy
1, prevention of cerebral palsy before birth: actively carry out early prenatal diagnosis and fetal prediction, carry out publicity and education on prenatal and postnatal care, improve the health level of pregnant women and prevent congenital diseases.
2, pregnant women should pay attention to: avoid viral infections, such as flu, rubella and so on. Especially during 10~ 18 weeks of pregnancy, the fetal nervous system develops rapidly, and more attention should be paid to preventing infection at this time.
3. Do not smoke or drink: avoid contact with toxic and harmful substances and radiation, do not do too much B-ultrasound examination, and it is best not to watch TV.
4. Prevention of cerebral palsy at birth: An important cause of cerebral palsy is fetal asphyxia and intracranial hemorrhage during delivery, so it is necessary to prevent premature delivery and dystocia. It is a vital link to prevent cerebral palsy to do all kinds of treatment for dystocia fetus. 5. In case of neonatal asphyxia, intracranial hemorrhage and other diseases, we should actively treat them to reduce the harm to newborns.
6, brain infection, cerebrovascular disease, brain injury, etc. It can cause acquired paralysis: therefore, it is fundamental to strengthen preventive measures to prevent the occurrence of the above diseases. Once this happens, you should be hospitalized in time.
