How to treat stuttering in children?

Patient's question:

I have a friend whose child came to my house to play and noticed that they have a slight stutter in their speech. Previously, I hadn't paid much attention to how the child suddenly developed this stuttering phenomenon? They often pause and hesitate while speaking, which makes them feel very tired.

Doctor's answer:

Hello, the current stuttering treatment primarily focuses on non-medical approaches, including speech therapy, psychological therapy, bioelectric feedback metronomes, voice modification techniques, delayed speech feedback methods, and masking methods, among others. Treatment should be tailored to the individual's characteristics, personality, emotions, and behaviors. In the classroom, the teacher can help alleviate the student's tension. This type of treatment can help the child stutter, then make speech become smooth and effortless, allowing the child to follow along and gradually transition to fluent speech. It can also enable the child to practice speaking in fear-filled natural environments, such as future conversations and gatherings where they will interact with strangers. Speech training methods
