How Can Walking And Vision Problems With Speech Delay Be Treated?
Hi my daughter has crossed the age 3years, and still not walking, vision is not clear and having speech delay also. My daughter is pre-term baby born 7th month. For 2 years she is under occupational and physical therapy but still no improvement. Her doctor told us that it will depend to her brain development. Is any child doctor can suggest for treatment?

This seems to be a case of what is commonly known as cerebral palsy. Unfortunately, no doctor or treatment can cure such children, and continuing care with a physio and occupational therapist is the right way. In addition, please involve a developmental pediatrician and a speech and language therapist, an eye surgeon and a bone surgeon in his care.
