Patient's question:
My child has been very active recently, and their behavior is also very abnormal. When I went to the hospital for a check-up, the doctor said it was ADHD. Could you please tell me how to treat this condition in children?Doctor's answer:
This is a common behavioral problem in children. Some of them can gradually improve with age, but some conditions can persist into adulthood. It is recommended that you visit a regular traditional Chinese medicine hospital. You can use conservative therapies such as acupuncture, bloodletting, ear acupuncture, and other methods, combined with some symptomatic medications. Children who take too many medications do not develop well. Although some children are indeed very active, like the symptoms of ADHD, they are not ADHD. Why do you say that? What conditions lead to children being misdiagnosed with ADHD? First, the age characteristics of children are young, lively, and active, which is their nature and normal. This is one of the most obvious external differences between children and adults. On the contrary, what is truly concerning is when a young child remains calm and inactive like an adult.
