Patient's question:
My son is 4 years old this year, and he still can't speak clearly. Mainly, he doesn't seem to be able to say more than two sentences at a time, and he's reluctant to play with other children. He also doesn't actively talk to us. Some people say my son has autism. What are the symptoms of childhood autism?Doctor's answer:
Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), also known as autism, exhibits a wide range of symptoms. Regardless of the type of performance, he will definitely have language communication difficulties, monotonously and rigidly repeating the same actions, narrow interests, intellectual disability, and an inability to control his emotions. Sometimes, he may also display post-perceptual sensory issues. Without a sense of danger, he often engages in high-risk behaviors. It is recommended that you pay more attention to your child's condition on a daily basis. If there are other symptoms or if the condition persists for a long time, it is best to take the child to the hospital for a thorough examination.
