Patient's question:
Five years old this year, the child's height, weight, and other physical aspects are normal, but when it comes to practicing skills, the child seems to be struggling. They've been practicing using chopsticks for a long time but still don't like reading, no matter how much you teach them.What kind of assistance is needed: What could be the cause of the child's learning skill development disorder?
Doctor's answer:
It has been discovered that children with difficulties in browsing may have abnormal brain lateralization, which could be caused by abnormal levels of fetal testosterone in the blood, leading to abnormal growth and development. Scholars believe that in these children, abnormalities or deficits may occur in the stages of processing written language systems; this could be due to abnormal reading patterns or language pathway abnormalities. In a small portion of cases, it may be related to difficulties in worldview or spatial pain perception. Some also believe that it could be caused by endocrine dysregulation of the inner ear vestibular function. Negative life events experienced by parents and families can exacerbate these issues.
