Question
A child who had a heart condition at one year old and grew up healthy after surgery now at ten years old, although walking normally and lively, has unclear speech and is not good at arithmetic. He started kindergarten at a young age. Question: What methods can be used to improve the child’s speech problems and enhance their memory?
Answer
Intellectual disability is a syndrome usually caused by certain diseases or harmful factors, rather than a single disease. In children with mild intellectual disability, there may be problems such as brain atrophy, poor brain development, or dyscoordination. Treating intellectual disability is extremely challenging, but early detection and active treatment can potentially achieve good effects in some aspects.
