Patient's question:
What is the best treatment method for ADHD? My son is 10 years old and has been hyperactive since he was a child. Now, in class, he always fiddles with things in his hands, and even tearing a piece of paper can take him half an hour. Is he ADHD? What should I do? What is the best treatment method for ADHD?Doctor's answer:
If a child has been diagnosed with ADHD, it is best to start treatment as soon as possible. This condition has a significant impact on the child, and delaying the optimal treatment period is not beneficial for their recovery. In addition to medication, ADHD can also be treated with psychological therapy and physical therapy.ADHD is a medical condition and should not be discriminated against or physically punished, as this may worsen the child's psychological trauma. Medication must be administered for children with ADHD, but it cannot replace education. Medication can provide a good foundation for education and should be understood correctly, including its effects and side effects.
