Patient's question:
Because my child is five and a half months old. Other children will cry if they touch her. And she doesn't like to touch other children either. When other children play with her, she turns her head away and sometimes even wants to cry. I don't know if this is normal?Doctor's answer:
Autism in children. Also known as childhood autism. It is a pervasive developmental disorder. Autism typically manifests before the age of three. To date. the cause of autism has not been fully understood. However. research has found that autism is a biologically based disease highly related to genetic inheritance. Although we currently do not have a quick fix or a specific treatment for autism. there are still effective strategies available. Active treatment can significantly improve the social functioning and quality of life of patients.
