Patient's question:
My nephew is 7 years old. He always claps his hands with both hands and talks in his mouth, but I don't know what he is saying. Now his eyes are a bit cross-eyed. I want to check if he has ADHD and what tests are needed.Doctor's answer:
Hello, it's a pleasure to assist you: ADHD can generally be diagnosed through clinical symptoms. Children with ADHD often exhibit symptoms such as inattention, hyperactivity, excessive talking, restlessness, impulsivity, frequent loss of personal items, and forgetfulness. If a child shows these symptoms, ADHD should be considered. Additionally, you can undergo a blood lead test to check for abnormalities, and the cost of the test is not very high.
