Patient's question:
How to treat low intelligence in babies? At birth, there was hypoxia and some minor skin abrasions. At three years old, some words are not clear, and the vocabulary is not as rich as other children. The hands look a bit clumsy and are not very flexible. It is difficult to concentrate on learning, and learning is very slow. Please ask: What are the methods for treating low intelligence?Doctor's answer:
Intellectual disability refers to the slow development or inability of brain function to fully expand as usual, which limits or hinders the ability to practice and adapt to society. The condition of delayed development can be detected as early as in infancy or childhood, unlike sudden-onset diseases or mental illnesses. Intellectual disability is a permanent disability, neither a disease nor a mental illness, nor can it be cured with medication. However, individuals with intellectual disabilities can expand their limited potential through training, enhancing their reading skills and ability to live a normal life. By combining medical, social, educational, and vocational training measures, tailored training is provided based on the age and severity of MR to help patients reach the highest possible intellectual level.
