Patient's question:
The child is already five years old and seems somewhat abnormal, not like a normal child. They always sleep and are slow to react. Is it possible that they have low intelligence? Now, they want to know if low intelligence in a child can be treated.Doctor's answer:
Hello, if your child suffers from intellectual disability, you can imagine how parents feel. If your baby's development is slower than that of other babies of the same age, parents will be deeply worried, wondering if their baby has an intellectual disability? According to experts, there are differences in development among babies of the same age, but the differences are relatively small, and a slower development does not necessarily indicate intellectual disability. In fact, having an intellectual disability is not something to be feared. Patients should believe that they can overcome the illness. As long as symptoms are detected early and treated accordingly, the chances of controlling the condition and recovering are very high.
