Question

A 2-year-old baby has been experiencing delayed language development and weak limbs from birth. At one year old, the child was checked at a pediatric hospital and diagnosed with developmental delay, with no significant effect from calcium supplements. Now, the baby can stand briefly but is unable to walk independently. The parents hope to find a solution.

Answer

A 2-year-old baby showing symptoms of delayed language development and weak limbs may be due to incomplete brain development leading to both delayed language development and neurodevelopmental delay. It is recommended to take the baby to a local pediatric hospital’s neurology department for diagnosis and treatment immediately. After determining the specific cause, professional treatment should be administered. In daily life, it is suggested to take the child outdoors more often and increase interaction with the outside world, which can help promote development.
