Pediatrician,  's  Response
Hi,
Thank you for your query,
The mainstay of the treatment of Cerebral palsy is Physiotherapy and it will help to decrease the stiffening of the muscles.
But the outcome of the physiotherapy to be individualized and it has limitations.
There are associated mental retardation and seizures and these issues to be addressed.
If any contractures present, surgical procedures will help to release them.
By doing the motor function may improve but it wont be like normal persons.
So be in regular follow up with your Pediatricia, neurologist and physiotherapist to advise.
Hope I have answered your query.
