Question

Our child has difficulty concentrating, developmental delays, and intellectual disability. What symptoms are associated with intellectual disability?

Answer

Early growth and development may be slightly slower than that of normal children, and they may not be as lively or show interest in their surroundings. They may either follow rules strictly or act roughly. Their language development may also be slightly delayed, with a limited grasp of abstract vocabulary. Intellectual disability encompasses a variety of different disabilities and recurrent seizures. Individuals with this condition may not be able to manage their personal lives, and most pass away early on. Survivors may show improvement with specific training for hand and foot skills. There are many treatment methods for intellectual disability, but since the conditions of patients vary, the medical treatments used also differ. Therefore, it is necessary for patients to be diagnosed as soon as possible to receive appropriate symptomatic anti-inflammatory medication.
