Doctor's answer:

Hello, currently, stuttering treatment is mostly focused on non-pharmacological approaches, including speech therapy, psychological therapy, bioelectric feedback metronomes, voice production techniques, delayed auditory feedback methods, and auditory masking, among others. Treatment should be tailored to the individual's unique characteristics, personality, emotions, and behaviors, selecting the most suitable methods for each person.
Stuttering in children has long been a concern for parents. When treating this condition, it is advisable to consider general treatment approaches. Only by using standardized methods can families help children recover from the disease as quickly as possible, ensuring it does not affect their growth and development. Therefore, parents are urged to pay close attention to their children's condition and seek medical treatment promptly.
