Suggest Treatment For Nerve Malfunctioning In Mentally Retard Children?
Hi,
My brother is 22 years old, weight around 45, height - 5. He is a mentally retarded child from birth. He do understand all the things which we tell him bt not able to explain his situations. He can not speak clearly.It seems a nerve of him has remained malfunctioned otherwise he behaves very normally.
Please suggest if by any chance,any treatment can make him a normal person.
Hi...by what you quote I feel that he has cerebral palsy and it is called static encephalopathy. It means the damage which the brain has already sustained cannot be made normal by medications. I am extremely sorry to say this but there is not medicine to completely cure the problem. Regards - Dr. Sumanth
