Patient's question:
A friend's child recently told me that my child cannot concentrate well in class, always daydreams, has wandering thoughts, and often talks, making it difficult for them to study and listen properly. This is very frustrating for me.Doctor's answer:
ADHD is an abnormal behavioral disorder in children. Such children have normal intelligence but exhibit defects in learning behavior and emotions. The main symptom is inattention. Symptoms such as difficulty focusing on short-term activities and excessive irritability can affect academic performance. ADHD does not have obvious pathological changes and is primarily diagnosed based on parental descriptions and physical examinations. In such cases, it is recommended to visit a hospital for diagnosis. If it is ADHD, timely medication treatment is necessary. The treatment of ADHD mainly depends on the combination of medication and psychological therapy. In daily life, patience is important, and children should be guided to gradually correct their hyperactive symptoms. A balanced diet rich in fruits, vegetables, milk, lean meat, and other nutritious foods should be consumed to help them gradually return to normal.
