Patient's question:
The child at home has been behaving unruly in class recently. The teacher has reported to me that the child might have attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). However, there are no significant impacts of these symptoms at home. What are the causes of this ADHD?Doctor's answer:
The causes of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) remain unclear. In addition to biochemical factors, it is also associated with the following factors:1. Family and social environment, such as disharmony in the family environment, parental marital status, etc.
2. Parental discipline, such as excessive indulgence, compliance, or harsh attitudes toward children.
3. Sensory processing disorders can affect a child's neurodevelopment, balance, and coordination. For children with sensory processing disorders, it is recommended to undergo sensory training as soon as possible. This can help alleviate symptoms.
