Is There Possibility To Have PBA Along With CP?

My son has spastic-athetoid mild-moderate CP...is it possible that he could also have PBA in addition to his CP??? Just curious...because sometimes he knows things are wrong and he will burst out laughing...sometimes it is very inappropriate and embarrassing. Should I address this with his doctors? Or a CP specialist? Your opinion would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,



Yes it can happen.



The same brain injury which caused the CP can cause this.



Consult your doctor though I feel medicines will not help.



God bless
