Patient's question:
The son rarely smiled since he was born. At first, I didn't pay much attention. Walking back and forth, I saw other people's children were all lively and energetic, which made me very worried. Please ask: How can one determine if it is low intelligence?Doctor's answer:
Symptoms of Intellectual Disability in Children:1. Mild MRIQ is 50–70, with mild adaptive behavior deficits.
2. Moderate MRIQ with moderate adaptive behavior deficits.
3. Severe MRIQ with severe adaptive behavior deficits.
4. Profound MRIQ with extreme adaptive behavior deficits.
Late speech development in children may also indicate intellectual disability. It is recommended that parents take their children to the hospital for early treatment, thorough examination, and the development of a tailored treatment plan to help them overcome the condition and grow healthily.
Parents must be patient. There are many treatments for intellectual disability, but since symptoms vary among patients, the treatment methods differ accordingly. Therefore, it is advised that patients seek early diagnosis and treatment upon noticing symptoms.
