definately...as u know erbs palsy in left arm has lead to the weakness.....mainly this weakness will improve only by physiotherapy...... and yes the improvement is slow but steady....give the child tab vitamin b12 daily...along with physiotherapy which involves mainly shoulder and upper arm... prevent contractures and joint dislocation by making movement in every direction of all shoulder elbow and wrist..as the child to resist against ur excersises movement....it will take couple of years more... :)
