Patient's question:
The baby was born in May 2013, male, and has not been clear in speech to this day. What could be the problem? Which doctor should be consulted? Thank youDoctor's answer:
There are several different possibilities for the situation you mentioned. One is caused by hearing abnormalities, another is due to an abnormally short frenulum linguae, which affects the pronunciation of certain sounds, and the rest could be issues related to resonance cavities such as cleft palate. It is recommended that you first visit a regular hospital's otolaryngology department for a follow-up examination. Based on the detailed examination, the doctor will make a diagnosis and gradually rule out possibilities. If referral to another department or consultation with specialists is needed, the doctor will advise you accordingly. The above suggestions are for the question "The baby was born in May 2013." I hope this is helpful to you. Wishing you good health!
