Patient's question:
Doctor, hello. My child is still young, but he has ADHD. I heard that traditional Chinese medicine is effective for treating ADHD. I would like to ask how traditional Chinese medicine treats ADHD?Doctor's answer:
ADHD can be managed, not cured. The etiology, manifestations, and diagnosis of ADHD are so complex that comprehensive treatment is naturally required. It is necessary to reasonably select the best treatment method. Currently, the main treatment methods for ADHD include medication, psychological behavioral therapy, family therapy, and brain biofeedback therapy, among which medication is the first choice. Research indicates that medication is the primary strategy, and combining it with psychological behavioral therapy, family therapy, or EEG biofeedback therapy is the optimal strategy. It cannot be cured; the goal of treatment is to improve learning ability and social adaptability.
