Patient's question:
My child has always had poor reaction time, poor memory, and low intelligence since childhood. Their simple thinking makes it impossible for them to attend regular school. My friend said it might be due to low intelligence. Please ask: How can low intelligence be treated?Doctor's answer:
Mental retardation (MR) refers to a condition where a child's intellectual and motor development during the growth period is significantly higher than the normal level for the same age, making it difficult to follow objective environmental suggestions. The key to treatment lies in early intervention, and it is crucial to determine a scientific approach. Generally, treatment can be challenging. Based on your description, if the mental retardation is congenital, there are currently no very effective methods. It is recommended to revisit the hospital for a thorough examination to identify the underlying cause and actively treat it. Wishing you a speedy recovery!In addition, during the treatment for mental retardation, in addition to medication, the patient's dietary condition and psychological state are also very important. The patient must always maintain a cheerful mood and eat a balanced diet to avoid unnecessary impacts on the complete recovery from mental retardation.
