Cerebral palsy is one of the most common neuro disorders in children. It occurs due to brain damage before birth or within five years. Due to the abnormal brain development, the affected child will have impaired motor control.
Types of Cerebral Palsy
- Spastic Cerebral Palsy
- Dyskinetic Cerebral Palsy
- Ataxic Cerebral Palsy
Treatment Of Cerebral Palsy
Patients with cerebral palsy require lifelong care and require therapists and rehabilitation specialists. Early interventions can help improve results and manage the condition.
Treatment depends entirely on the individual requirements and will be revised as the child grows. Most affected persons will have assisted devices such as crutches, hearing aids, automatic wheelchairs, and more.

At Ujala Cygnus Moradabad, we offer a tailored treatment that combines medications, advanced scans, tests, surgeries, and therapies for each patient.
Some of the key scans for assessment are:
CT Scans can quickly detect bleeding in the brain and spine. It also detects cysts, tumors, herniated discs, and other abnormalities.
Electroencephalogram (EEG) records the brain’s electrical activity, especially in patients with epilepsy and sleep disorders.
MRI uses magnetic fields to assess stroke intensity, traumatic brain injury, brain and spinal cord tumors, and multiple sclerosis.
Positron emission tomography (PET) scans use small amounts of radioactive isotopes to evaluate brain activity.
Another diagnostic method is Spinal tap (lumbar puncture).
In this test, cerebrospinal fluid samples are extracted using a needle and sent to a laboratory to check for infections, tumors, and internal bleeding in the brain and spine.
