Hi,
My baby is five months old, he was born with Brachial Plexus on the left arm, at the first week of age there were no movement at all in the Shoulder/arm/fingers after a week we saw slight improvements and it is getting better and better like when he leis on his back he could bring his hand to his mouth, but when he is on a seating position he will only pick up his hand above the stomach.
Also the wrist is always turned in.
Also his fingers would never bring out the fingers.
We are doing intensive therapy with him several times a day twice a week a FT is coming down to our house.
We went To Dr. Peter Waters @ Boston Children’s Hospital he did recommended surgery in Four weeks.
So to which doctor should we go for a second opinion?
