Child, 8 years old, boy

Patient's question:

One week now, my eyes keep twitching and my nose is upturned, but there's no pain or discomfort.

Doctor's answer:

ADHD, also known as Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder, refers to significant difficulties in focusing and sustaining attention compared to peers, with a shorter attention span. Methylphenidate can be taken orally and is suitable for children aged 6 and above. Common behavioral treatment methods include reinforcement, shaping, extinction, and punishment. These methods aim to promote appropriate behavior and reduce undesirable behavior. Additionally, it is important to establish a healthy family structure and cultivate self-control skills.
