How serious is Microcephaly in children?

in #english6 years ago

Hello Friends of Steem Today I will talk about a syndrome such as microcephaly since it is a subject that caught my attention as I read it and I want you to also know a little more about this.

-Good Microcephaly refers to the head of the baby is smaller than the head of a normal baby, bone is smaller than the average size of a person without this syndrome.

-The causes of this disease, more than anything, is the responsibility of the pregnant woman since it comes from there. Then I will leave some of the most popular.

  • The consumption of alchol, drugs or medication during the pregnancy period.

  • Complications at birth or at the time of birth.

  • Zika fever is one of the most popular because it causes this disease.

  • Maternal malnutrition

-They are the most popular causes that are known to prove that babies as mentioned above leave with your little head.

-Lastly the disease is very serious and there is no treatment to cure or settle this, just go with a specialist in each period of time.

  • They can have many consequences from mental retardation to sensory or motor diseases

-The Microcephaly has no cure unfortunately because it causes serious damage to the brain that is practically irreversible.

In this image you can see how the skull of a baby with Microcephaly does not grow and that prevents the brain from expanding and being stuck with the same skull, causing delays and thinking problems.

I hope and you like the subject and know a little more about this that is very interesting.
