Patient's question:
It's already two and a half years old. The child always dislikes playing with other things during dinner time, and the child is very active. Everything they do is the same. I worry that the child might have ADHD, but it doesn't seem like it. My family all says to get checked. What kind of assistance is needed: I want to know how to determine if the child might have ADHD? What are the symptoms?Doctor's answer:
ADHD is the full name of Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder. Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder is also known as Minimal Brain Dysfunction Syndrome, which is a relatively common psychological disorder in children. Children with ADHD have normal or near-normal intelligence, excessive motor activity (in some cases, there may be no hyperactivity), inattention, emotional instability, guilt, stubbornness, and often suffer from varying degrees of learning difficulties. Some children also have motor coordination disorders and comprehensive analysis disorders. The course of the disease usually starts before the age of 7 and lasts for more than 6 months.
