Patient's question:
When studying, how to teach and explain is still not understood or mastered, and I'm always slow to respond in daily life. I suspect it might be due to low intelligence. What are the symptoms of this condition? Please ask: What are the obvious causes of intellectual disability?Doctor's answer:
What are the causes of low intelligence in children? There are several causes of low intelligence in children, such as intergenerational inheritance, advanced maternal age, or some early second pregnancies, pregnancy poisoning, early pregnancy infections (rubella, cytomegalovirus, toxoplasmosis), small for gestational age infants, severe congenital malformations, cerebral palsy, birth injuries, convulsions caused by intracranial hemorrhage, hypoglycemia, severe respiratory distress, jaundice, encephalitis, meningitis, etc. However, it should be noted that some children may have delayed growth and development, which is not necessarily low intelligence. This is often related to intergenerational inheritance, such as parents who started speaking and walking later in childhood. What are the causes of low intelligence in children? For the treatment of low intelligence, the first step is to identify the cause and condition, so that appropriate treatment methods can be chosen to help the child respond to treatment and improve intelligence.
