What is Cerebral Palsy?
Cerebral palsy (CP) is a neurological disorder that affects muscle tone, movement, and coordination. It is caused by damage to the brain, often occurring during fetal development or in early childhood. CP can affect various parts of the body, including the arms, legs, or face.
