Patient's question:
Which hospital is good for treating intellectual disability? My sister's child was carefully examined from a young age and diagnosed with intellectual disability. When the condition first appeared, many treatment methods were tried, but it has never been cured. Later, my sister started to feel a bit scared. Please ask: What are the general diagnostic criteria for intellectual disability?Doctor's answer:
Intellectual disability is caused by heredity, congenital or acquired harmful factors that act on a child's brain during the fetal period, perinatal period, or postnatal developmental stages, resulting in brain damage and changes in brain function and structure. Children with intellectual disability cannot meet the needs of social and daily life. It is recommended to seek early intervention and treatment. Currently, some nutritional drugs for brain and nerve treatment can be used, along with appropriate physical exercise and the development of abilities. Rehabilitation or surgical treatment may be considered depending on the situation! In fact, having intellectual disability is not something to be feared. Patients should believe that they can overcome the illness. As long as symptoms are detected early and treated accordingly, the chances of alleviating the condition and achieving recovery are very high.
