Patient's question:
After the child was born, she was diagnosed with Down syndrome. I have always wanted to give her treatment, but I don't know how to treat Down syndrome to make it better.Doctor's answer:
Hello, Down syndrome is a congenital defect caused by genetic factors. Rational genetic counseling, enhanced maternal and child health care, and reducing the pregnancy rate among pregnant women are effective measures to reduce Down syndrome. The early motor functions of children may show no significant difference from normal age, but they increase as the child grows older. The motor development of different patients varies greatly. Patients with trisomy 21 can perform simple exercises, such as dressing and eating, but they exhibit clumsy, uncoordinated movements and unstable gait, requiring patient and repetitive training from caregivers.
