They can refer the toddler, infant or child to specialists, such as neurologists, orthopedists for children and physiatrists. Tests of blood, urine and skin might also be requested.
Babies with CP may exhibit delayed developmental milestones stiff muscles, exaggerated reactions that aren't found in normal babies. Low Apgar scores can also indicate oxygen deprivation.

Symptoms

Children suffering from dyskinetic cerebral paralysis have uncontrolled, jerky movements of their feet, hands and arms. They might also have trouble reaching out, picking up objects and coloring with crayons. They might snore or have difficulty holding their balance.

To reduce the risk of developing CP, women should get vaccinated before pregnancy against diseases that could cause brain damage in the fetus, including rubella and German measles. It is also essential for mothers to receive regular prenatal care during the pregnancy. This can help avoid complications such as premature birth and low birth weight.
Treatment
Cerebral palsy can be caused by any cause that hinders brain development, from infections in pregnancy to complications during labor and birth to head injuries. Babies born before 32 weeks of age or with low birth weights are at greater chance of developing cerebral palsy. Maternal febrile illness during pregnancy, rubella (German measles) as well as cytomegalovirus and herpes infections can trigger inflammation that harms the developing nervous system.
The treatment plan for each person with CP is different for each patient. A pediatric specialist, physical medicine and rehabilitation doctor or neurologist should supervise the medical treatment and create the treatment plan that addresses specific symptoms and needs.
To improve the function or ease pain, medications that reduce muscle tightness may be used. In the most severe cases of CP surgery may be required to extend stiff, tightly contracted muscles or correct a problem such as an unusually curved spine.
Speech therapists aid children in learning to speak or communicate, and they can teach parents how to enhance their child's communication. The therapeutic approach to recreation allows children to participate in activities that encourage social interaction, self-esteem and motor skill development.
Support
A good support system can make all the difference. Parents and children with cerebral palsy will find a group of families who can relate to their experiences via a local gathering or online groups. Many groups have fundraisers to raise funds and raise awareness about the condition.
Teachers can help children with cerebral palsy at school. They can arrange for students who cannot attend class due to medical appointments or taking medication. They can also make arrangements in the classroom, like allowing students to travel between classes, take tests or doctor visits.
