Question
Unable to understand teaching content during study sessions, with slow daily responses, suspected of having intellectual disability. What are the symptoms of this condition, and how should it be treated?
Answer
Children with intellectual disability typically reach developmental milestones such as lying on their backs, sitting, standing, and walking later than their normally developing peers. If parents notice such situations, they should pay more attention. For children with intellectual disability, parents can implement purposeful educational training based on the child’s characteristics and also adopt neuro-targeted therapy to improve the child’s intellectual disability. When faced with intellectual disability, timely symptomatic treatment should be conducted without hesitation in seeking medical advice. If there is no improvement in intellectual disability over a long period, it is necessary to adjust the treatment plan promptly.
