Question
What treatment methods should be adopted to promote intellectual development in children with delayed cognitive growth?
Answer
Intellectual disability may originate from genetic, congenital, or acquired factors, causing brain damage in children and subsequently affecting their cognitive development. Treatment should adopt a holistic approach, involving repetitive and patient training. Combine language with physical movements, progressing from simple to complex tasks to train the child’s imitation skills. Additionally, through sensory stimulation such as smell, touch, and taste, enhance the child’s thinking abilities and gradually train their language expression and complex movements.
