Common symptoms include language impairments and neuropsychiatric or behavioral abnormalities. Although cerebral palsy is a lifelong disability, scientifically sound and effective rehabilitation therapy can significantly alleviate its symptoms. The first six months of life represent a critical window for treatment, as the infant’s brain is undergoing its most rapid period of development. Patients are advised to seek prompt evaluation and treatment at a pediatric department in a hospital.
