Patient's question:
I always feel that my child doesn't fit in well, preferring to be alone. However, their personality is quite cheerful, and they often laugh. They are also good when they are with their parents. I would like to consult about the symptoms of autism in children. What causes them to not fit in?Doctor's answer:
Autism in children is primarily characterized by a lack of communication with others or the skills to communicate, as well as a lack of secure attachment with parents. Some patients may also exhibit symptoms such as hyperactivity, difficulty focusing, irritability, and language communication disorders. This condition can be clearly diagnosed through examinations such as electroencephalography, functional magnetic resonance imaging, and psychiatric assessments. The most common cause of this disease may be genetic factors. It is recommended to take the child to the hospital for a detailed examination before proceeding with treatment.
