Question
A six-year-old child shows extreme inattention, struggles to concentrate on learning, and is suspected of having ADHD. What are the specific symptoms of ADHD?
Answer
Adult ADHD, also known as “Attention Deficit Disorder - Residual Type” (ADD-R), primarily manifests as attention deficit, hyperactivity, or restlessness, emotional fluctuations or instability, and impaired learning or social functions. In addition to symptomatic treatment, patients should pay attention to maintaining adequate sleep in their daily lives, as good sleep can help alleviate symptoms. It is recommended to seek the evaluation and guidance of professional medical personnel to obtain more suitable treatment plans.
