Question
A parent has reported that their child is experiencing a stuttering phenomenon while speaking, similar to a lisp. The parent wants to understand the treatment methods for childhood stuttering and how to achieve complete recovery.
Answer
Childhood stuttering can be caused by various factors, including a short lingual frenulum or genetic factors. Firstly, it is recommended that parents take their child to the hospital for a comprehensive examination to determine the specific cause of the stuttering. If the stuttering is caused by a genetic disease, it may be difficult to completely cure. However, schools specializing in the treatment of stuttering offer an effective treatment pathway. After a period of education, the child’s stuttering may improve. Parents can consider seeking help from such professional institutions.
