Question
Recently, my teacher called to say that my child has difficulty concentrating, is distracted, irritable, impulsive, often loses their temper, is stubborn, and has unstable emotions. What should I do about this condition? Can a child with ADHD be cured?
Answer
ADHD is characterized by hyperactivity and inattention. The causes of ADHD are diverse. Treatment for pediatric ADHD is not solely medication-based but involves a comprehensive approach including psychological therapy, family therapy, behavioral therapy, dietary therapy, traditional Chinese medicine therapy, and Western medicine therapy. Specific treatment should be conducted under the guidance of a doctor in a regular hospital.
