Cerebral palsy is a group of lifelong conditions that affect movement, balance, and posture. It happens because of a problem with how the brain developed or an injury to the developing brain, usually before, during, or shortly after birth. Cerebral palsy affects each person differently, and many people with it lead active, meaningful lives with the right support.
Signs often appear in infancy or early childhood and may include stiff or floppy muscles, trouble with balance and coordination, delays in reaching movement milestones, or difficulty with fine tasks. Some people have mild effects, while others need more support. Speech, vision, or learning may also be involved for some. Causes can include problems with brain development, lack of oxygen, infections, or injury around the time of birth, though the exact cause is not always known.
