Question
What are the symptoms of pediatric cerebral palsy?
Answer
The symptoms of pediatric cerebral palsy primarily include increased muscle tone, difficulty with abduction, muscle stiffness, spasms, and joint maintenance in a Bend posture. Some mild cases may only manifest as poor fine motor skills in the hands and difficulty placing the heel down when walking. Additionally, cerebral palsy can also lead to language development and articulation disorders, strabismus, and varying degrees of seizures and intellectual disabilities.
