I need help for my kid

Hi,
I am a doctor by profession. I have younger boy (28 months old).He got meninigitis at the age of 2 months.He is hypotonic.He can't move his upper and lower limbs properly especialy left arm and right leg.His right arm can go up to mouth but he cant take it above the head.He is also developing deformity on right leg. His right foot is dropped down and right leg looks lengthy than left one.I should use KAFO for his right leg or not.He can sit with some functional scoliosis.He is much improving day by day but very slowly.But still he cant stand.I wanna to see my child walking. Can u guide me webs or exercises which I can do for my child.I need help.

Look up the MOVE international site
or MOVE europe. You will find details of organisations which will give you your nearest contact according to where you live.

All the best.

Thank you Humera
i am living in Lahore. you can guide me on line if possible. I am doing passive exercises to my kid. I am worried about developing deformity in right leg.

hi,
I need to know more abt your child to advice you something. however passive exercise is not the right treatment for cp children. what sort of deformity you think, he is going to develop. i dont know how i could guide you online, but let me know if i could be of any help.
