Complications?
editIntellectual disability and seizures are currently listed as 'complications' of CP in the infobox.
This is surely inaccurate - they're associated with it because the kind of brain injury or structural difference which can cause CP can also cause intellectual disability or epilepsy.
Now, reflux, or aspiration pneumonia could be argued to be true complications of cerebral palsy... (but I don't actually think they should be listed as such, when they're more complications of life with severe physical impairments, and are equally likely to be experienced by people with similarly severe impairment of other origin than CP).

- @FlyingMeeces Even though I added learning disability to the list of complications, I concede you have a point. Perhaps {{infobox medical condition}} needs to have a "frequently comorbid with" section. I dream of horses (Contribs) (Talk) 06:38, 9 November 2022 (UTC)
