Can intellectual disability be cured?

Patient's question:

A child in a friend's family is 11 years old this year, a boy. He seems to be a bit mentally retarded. Please ask: can mental retardation be cured?

Doctor's answer:

Generally, intellectual disability in children is caused by an imbalance in the excretion of neurotransmitters in patients. Targeted treatment should be adopted. If detected and treated early, it can still be alleviated. It is recommended to seek medical guidance for symptomatic treatment as early as possible. Finally, in daily life, in addition to focusing on treatment effectiveness, it is also important to maintain a good mood, as a positive attitude is very helpful for recovery. Moreover, daily diet also needs to be paid special attention to. A healthy diet greatly aids in recovery and can even have a supplementary therapeutic effect. Therefore, it is necessary to maintain a light diet and regular daily routines.
