Patient's question:
My child has had a stutter since they were young. My friend has always wanted to get the child treated. However, after trying many methods, the results haven't been very noticeable. So, the family members are quite anxious too. That's why I wanted to ask today: What are the causes of stuttering in children, and what methods should be used to treat it?Doctor's answer:
Children stuttering is a phenomenon of a thick tongue. This phenomenon is caused by a short lingual frenulum. You can go to the hospital to have it clipped. Of course, such a phenomenon may also be caused by a series of factors such as learning from others, language training, psychological obstacles, etc. For such a phenomenon, it is necessary to correct the child's speaking method moderately. During the correction process, avoid deliberately pointing out to the child. Just let the child speak slowly and gradually, and it can be corrected.
