Patient's question:
My child has always had poor reaction time, weak memory, and low intelligence since childhood. Their simple thinking prevents them from attending regular school. My friend said it might be due to low intelligence. How should low intelligence be treated?Doctor's answer:
Friend, according to your description, children with intellectual disabilities need to apply medical, social, educational, and vocational training measures in coordination. Training should be tailored to the patient's age and the severity of intellectual disability to help them reach the highest possible level of intelligence. For your situation, it is recommended that you seek a thorough examination and treatment at a regular hospital. It is also advised that you encourage your child to play many games that develop their intellect during their daily life. I hope my explanation can help you. In fact, having intellectual disabilities is not something to be feared. Patients should believe that they can overcome the condition. As long as treatment is timely in the early stages, the chances of stabilizing the condition and achieving recovery are very high.
