What is Cerebral Palsy(CP)?
CP is a disorder of muscle movement and coordination. It is caused by an injury to a child’s brain that occurs before birth or during early infancy. It affects the part of the brain that controls body movement. People with cerebral palsy can have other problems such as seizures, decreased ability to learn, and problems hearing, seeing, and thinking in addition to the physical impairment. Diagnosis and management requires a multidisciplinary team including pediatrician, neurologist and therapists.
