Question

The child has been a bit slow since they were young, and now it’s more obvious. I didn’t realize this was a condition until recently, when I had a detailed check-up at the hospital. How should intellectual disability in children be treated?

Answer

Intellectual disability is considered a symptom, and treatment should be specific to the child’s underlying disease. If a diagnosis has not been confirmed, treatment should not be initiated arbitrarily. [Advice]: Secondly, avoid using tonics that affect libido and neurological medications; then, follow the treatment plan provided by the hospital after a thorough examination. Intellectual disability is a condition that is not easy to recover from. Family and friends should always maintain an optimistic attitude, actively face this issue, as this is the only way to boost the patient’s confidence in combating intellectual disability and believe that recovery is possible.
