From Diagnosis to Recovery: The Comprehensive Cerebral Palsy Care at Upright Kids Ortho with Paediatric Orthopaedic Surgeon Bangalore | Dr. Jayanth S Sampath How does Cerebral Palsy work At Upright Kids Ortho? What are the symptoms and signs of cerebral palsy? Paediatric Orthopaedic Surgeon Bangalore | Dr. Jayanth S Sampath says the predominant symptoms and signs of cerebral palsy are related to difficulties with movements of the legs and arms. The extent and severity of the brain lesion is the leading factor in the magnitude of the motor deficit. For example, developmental motor delay, gait disorders, poor fine and gross motor coordination, swallowing disorders, or speech delay are all the result of the basic movement problem. The way they present varies from child to child. For that reason, it is difficult to describe a clinical picture that will satisfy every child with cerebral palsy.
