A member asked:

Could a traumatic birth (umbilical cord wrapped around the infants neck and almost dying/mother had preeclampsia and also almost died) cause the baby to develop severe, treatment resistant obsessive compulsive disorder as a toddler/in childhood?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

I can't put the two issues together as cause and effect. What I have seen with such a history is mild disorders of movement/CP as the brain areas controlling movement are more susceptible to that sort of injury.
