Question
The child often shows signs of restlessness and inability to stay calm and has been diagnosed with pediatric ADHD. What treatment should be considered in the early stage?
Answer
The treatment for pediatric ADHD is not solely dependent on medication but encompasses a comprehensive approach including psychological therapy, family therapy, behavioral therapy, dietary therapy, traditional Chinese medicine therapy, and Western medicine therapy. These methods complement each other and are not effective through a single approach. Specific treatment should be conducted under the guidance of a professional doctor in a regular medical institution. Additionally, family members can adopt folk remedies as auxiliary treatments in daily life and pay attention to dietary adjustments, avoiding irritating food.
