NeuroGen Offers Effective Autism Treatment in India

Autism, also known as ASD (Autism Spectrum Disorder), is a composed group of disorders that affect the patient’s social and interactive skills. It also affects their concentration and overall behaviour severely.

A child with ASD normally displays autism symptoms before he/she turns 3. However, diagnosis can be conducted after he/she completes 3 years of age.

Although there is no known conventional treatment for this condition, still with advances stem cell research and therapy, stem cell treatment for autism is gaining popularity.

Symptoms of Autism (ASD)

It is highly advisable to arrange for an effective diagnostic test in case a child, less than three years of age, displays any of the symptoms mentioned below:
 
  • Inability to communicate using non-verbal medium or through body language
 
  • Inability to establish and maintain peer relationships
 
  • Inability to start communication or avoid being a part of conversations
 
  • Difficulty in learning spoken language
 
  • Repetitive behavior
 
  • Reduced human connection due to excessive attachment to inanimate objects
 
  • Inability to respond when their name is called
 
  • Hyperactive senses
 
  • Abnormally aggressive behaviour
 
  • The tendency for inflicting pain on themselves
 
  • Abnormal eating habits
 
Causes of Autism (ASD)

There is no single cause of autism that medical research has been able to identify. 
 
Given below are some of the suspected causes that most medical experts believe can cause autism:

1. Structural or functional damage to nervous system

2. Genetic mutation resulting in abnormal brain development

3. Environmental factors (mercury poisoning, exposure to strong medicines, stress in mother during pregnancy, infections, etc.)
 
NeuroGen provides effective autism treatment in India with stem cell therapy

Stem cell therapy is hailed as one of the best comprehensive treatment methods for a wide range of neurological and physiological disorders, which were earlier untreatable. Stem cells are the basic ‘blank’ cells that develop into the various types of cells that are essentially required by the body.

At NeuroGen Brain and Spine Institute, stem cell treatment for autism is gaining immense popularity due to its remarkable effectiveness. Lack of sufficient oxygen to the brain during the fetal stage and the degeneration of the immune system are thought to be among the main causes of autism. Regeneration of these damaged cells has been found to be effective in reversing the effects of autism. This treatment method has shown remarkable results in improving impairments caused by this debilitating neurological condition.

Effective Treatment For Cerebral Palsy Begins With NeuroGen

Cerebral palsy is a neural disorder which affects thousands of children all around the world every year. It affects nearly 4 out of 1000 children. This disorder results in abnormal tightening of the muscles, which leads to the lack of co-ordination and inability to perform various tasks. Cerebral palsy may develop in the fetal stages, at birth or even in the early childhood.

Cerebral palsy is basically a common term used to identify a group of disorders that mainly affect the co-ordination and the ability to make voluntary movements in the affected child. Although this is not a progressive disorder which tends to worsen the condition as the child grows, this condition results in mild to severe disability due to the damage caused to the brain.

Types of cerebral palsy


There are mainly 3 types of cerebral palsy:
 
1. Spastic cerebral palsy
 
2. Dyskinetic cerebral palsy
 
3. Ataxic cerebral palsy
 
Causes of cerebral palsy

Cerebral palsy is mainly caused due to an injury to the brain or a malfunction in the brain during the development of the fetus or the child. This condition may develop in the fetal stage, at birth or within a few years after the child’s birth.

These are the causes of cerebral palsy:

1. Physical trauma/infection during pregnancy

2. Insufficient oxygen supply in fetal stage

3. Premature birth complications

4. Abnormal development and shape of brain

5. Genetic mutation of brain cells

Symptoms of cerebral palsy:

At times, the injury to the brain may not be treatable and the complications may also be permanent. 
 
Some of the common symptoms of cerebral palsy are:

1. Lack of muscle co-ordination for voluntary movements (in ataxic)

2. Tightened/stiff muscles with exaggerated reflexes (in spastic)

3. Weakness in one arm/leg with abnormal gait

4. Difficulty in controlling mouth movements

5. Motor movement problems
 
Effective treatment of cerebral palsy with stem cell therapy at NeuroGen

NeuroGen Brain and Spine Institute offers extensive treatment for cerebral palsy in India through stem cell therapy. This advanced and ultra-modern treatment method is useful for treating numerous small and major neural disorders, including various types of cerebral palsy.

Conventional treatments tend to aid the patient in adjusting to an improved lifestyle, whereas cerebral palsy treatment in India using stem cells focuses on repairing the damage to the nervous tissue and helping the child to recover from this disorder effectively.
