Question
Patient Gender: Female Patient Age: 54 Detailed Condition and Purpose of Consultation: Understanding that most children should have the ability to express themselves in language by the age of 4, if they are still unable to speak, it’s best to have them checked at a hospital, as it might indicate a language development delay.
Answer
Generally speaking, children should begin to develop language expression abilities by the age of 4. If a child is still unable to speak at this age, it may be necessary to undergo some medical examinations to rule out the possibility of language development delay. It is recommended that parents pay close attention to their child’s development, increase interaction with their child, and expose them to the outside world to promote their language skills. If the situation does not improve, further professional assessment may be needed to determine if there are other potential issues such as autism.
