Patient's question:
My nephew is 7 years old. He always claps his hands with both hands and talks a lot, but I don't know what he's saying. Now his eyes are a bit cross-eyed. I want to check if he has ADHD and what tests are needed.Doctor's answer:
Hello friend, ADHD is generally diagnosed through clinical symptoms. Children with ADHD often exhibit symptoms such as inattention, hyperactivity, excessive talking, restlessness, impulsivity, frequent loss of personal items, and forgetfulness. If a child shows these symptoms, ADHD should be considered. Additionally, a blood lead test can be conducted to check for abnormalities, and the cost of the test is not very high.
