Question
If a child has particularly thin arms and legs, fails to develop muscle, and responds slowly, is it related to brain disorders?
Answer
Malnutrition may lead to underdeveloped muscles in children, and a slow response could be a sign of an abnormality in the brain. It is recommended to undergo a brain scan to determine the cause. If it is a congenital issue, consider traditional Chinese medicine treatment. For delayed language development, appropriate treatment should be administered after confirming the abnormal brain area. Daily communication with the child is encouraged, maintaining patience and not losing confidence. Have these symptoms been present since birth? Is there a history of brain injury?
