I have mild spastic cerebral palsy. I'm having a great deal of trouble walking, sitting down from standing position and standing up from seated position but I have little trouble riding a bicycle, and I want advice...

Here are my symptons:

Both Legs: The insides of my feet (Arches) turn slightly inward and upward when walking. The muscles in my calves and hamstrings constantly tighten and spasm up. I lose balance easily. Both knees extend backwards further than they should. My ankles, while flexible when sitting, are not very flexible when walking.

Left Leg: My left knee locks up sometimes (major surgery done for meniscus tear around 9 years ago). I also have plantars fasciitis in my left heel and my left ankle and calf muscles locks up from time to time when the plantars fasciitis pain begins.

Right Leg: Knee has some kind of bulbous apparatus on the left (inner) side of the kneecap, which I believe is a spasming muscle and sometimes shows a slight bit of pain. When sitting if I try to raise my lower leg (from 90 degree angle to horizontally even with upper leg) for stretching, my knee will sometimes pop.

As far as seeing a doctor goes: I make extremely little money and have no savings or insurance at all. I have no open credit cards and will be filing bankruptcy very shortly. So a doctors visit is out since I cannot afford it. I need home remedy solutions, physical therapy cures, or anything else you can think of that may be of some kind of help.

A 20 month old baby boy named Thomas Teng from Canada who is suffering from CP by a cord around his neck during birth delivery. He is very weak with his hands and legs and necks. He can not walk on his foot at all. He can crawl with his belly on bed during the first 20 moths.

In Dec 23 2008, the baby boy with his mother came to Hong Yuen Chinese Orthopdics Treatment Centre at Hong Kong for help & cure because the grandpa of the baby boy believed only traditional Chinese Manipulative Medicine Method can cure the CP for the baby boy.

The baby boy was taken 90 minutes traditional Chinese Manipulative Medicine Method treatment in one day, 3 days in one week by Dr. Ng. After 2 months treatment, the baby boy can crawl to run with his hand and foot. Now he can even stand and begin to walk on his own foot (with little help from his mother only). We trust the baby boy can walk and run by Aug, 2009. We will keep updated the treatment of the baby boy.
