Patient's question:
At the age of 2 and 10 months, he/she can only call "daddy" and "mummy" and some simple, individual words.Doctor's answer:
Language delay refers to a condition where a child's oral expression ability or language comprehension ability is significantly behind the normal developmental level of their peers due to various reasons. Factors such as intellectual disability, hearing impairment, dysarthria, central nervous system diseases, and poor language environment are common causes of language delay in children. Therefore, if language delay is observed in a child, it is important to identify the underlying cause. If a child exhibits delayed language development without the above-mentioned clear reasons, it is referred to as idiopathic language disorder or developmental language delay. It is recommended that you visit a local large hospital for examination before proceeding with further treatment!!
