Why does a three-year-old child always suck their fingers?

Patient's question:

My mom hasn't been able to cook recently and often says she has a headache and feels dizzy. The key is that I don't really know what's going on, but she just looks a bit unwell. Please tell me why a three-year-old child always eats their fingers.

Doctor's answer:

Generally speaking, children start to grow their milk teeth around 6 months old, and this process continues until they are about 2.5 years old when all the teeth are fully replaced. According to your description, your child is not yet in the teething period. We know that ADHD has a significant impact on children, and if it is not treated in time or if the treatment method is incorrect, it progresses rapidly and can bring great harm to young children. Therefore, it is important to seek professional medical treatment promptly at a qualified hospital. This is the key.
