Patient's question:
He is already five years old. Over these five years, I have never heard him call out "Mom." It truly pains my child. I have always patiently guided him, but he still cannot speak a single word. As a mother, I have no high expectations, only hoping that my child grows up healthy and happy. What should I do if my child cannot speak? Could it be autism?Doctor's answer:
Autism in children cannot be ruled out in this case. It is recommended that you promptly check your child with the child insurance department. Parents should be patient when taking care of their children. Once you notice your child is not feeling well, take them to the hospital for a check-up in a timely manner. When your child is sick, parents must not blindly give them medicine to avoid delaying the child's condition. Encourage your child to drink more water.Regarding your child's current situation, I suggest paying more attention to their emotions in daily life. Taking them outside for walks is also beneficial for their condition.
