Patient's question:
My child was diagnosed with ADHD at the hospital. What are the causes of ADHD in children and what should be done?Doctor's answer:
There are many reasons for children's ADHD, including insufficient levels of brain neurotransmitters. For example, a decrease in the concentration of brain neurotransmitters such as norepinephrine and dopamine weakens the inhibitory activity of the central nervous system, leading to increased motor activity. Genetic factors such as congenital physical defects, organ abnormalities, chromosomal abnormalities, and parental mental illness can affect children's brain function to varying degrees, leading to congenital physical defects and further triggering ADHD.
