Myelination dysplasia mainly manifests as ataxia symptoms, brain disease symptoms, and motor dysfunction. Myelination dysplasia is a genetic disease, and the symptoms of each patient may vary. Some patients may experience headaches, dizziness, hearing impairment, epilepsy, mental disorders, etc. Other patients may show rapid emotional changes, easy excitement, and irritability. Early intervention and treatment should be pursued.
1. Myelination dysplasia is a genetic disease related to the widespread lack of myelin in the white matter of the brain. Patients may experience ataxia symptoms, brain disease, and motor dysfunction symptoms.
2. The symptoms of each patient are not completely the same and may include headaches, dizziness, decreased vision, numbness and pain in the limbs, unstable walking, leg weakness, language disorders, hearing impairment, memory loss, convulsions, hemiplegia, seizures, or mental disorders.
3. Some patients may experience rapid emotional changes, easy excitement, and anger. They may also experience skin darkening, blood pressure drops, and other symptoms. In the later stages, symptoms such as generalized muscle stiffness and opisthotonus may appear.
4. Myelination dysplasia can lead to comprehensive developmental delay. For example, at 3 months of age, the baby may still have unstable head control and be unable to hold hands together. At 5 months, the baby may have no active grasping awareness. At 6 months, the baby may be unable to turn over or recognize relatives. At 9 months, the baby may still sit unsteadily and have no cognition of common objects and people. At 1 year old, the baby may still be unable to crawl or stand unsupported. If myelination dysplasia is suspected, one should consult a neurologist and receive treatment through medication combined with acupuncture, massage, and limb function training.
