Question

What medical specialist should a 4-year-old child see if they can’t speak and can’t express the need for urination or defecation, with normal hearing but unable to manage daily life independently?

Answer

This situation requires the child to be seen by a doctor and undergo a series of examinations to determine the root cause of the problem. Treatment should be tailored to the specific condition and examination results, with a recommendation for a combination of traditional Chinese and Western medicine, along with rehabilitation training. As for medication, it should be determined by the doctor based on the child’s condition. Parents should continue to learn about the latest educational concepts and methods, objectively observe their child, fairly assess their abilities, guide them reasonably, and scientifically assist in their development.
