Patient's question:
The child is 5 years old and very smart. Recently, they were diagnosed with ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder). I've heard this condition can be quite challenging and difficult to treat. I don't have access to a good specialized hospital for this. How is ADHD treated in children?Doctor's answer:
Due to the child being arrogant, stubborn, impulsive, lacking restraint, and not getting along with others, they can argue with others. Their behavior is childish or eccentric, purposeless, mischievous, truant, fighting, and even lying, stealing, despite education not helping. In rare cases, personality and behavioral defects may persist into adulthood. In the diet of children with ADHD, MSG must be avoided, and drinks, yogurt, sugar, and puffed foods should be consumed in moderation. They are more likely to eat foods like eggs, milk, potatoes, etc. Daily care for such children needs to be paid more attention to avoid unnecessary harm caused by their hyperactivity.
