Patient's question:
What problems are associated with developmental delays in babies? As parents, we are very worried, afraid that the child's condition will worsen. Regarding the question I just mentioned, I hope the doctor can answer.Doctor's answer:
If parents notice that their baby is experiencing developmental delays, it means that the baby's performance is relatively behind or abnormal compared to normal peers of the same age, and it is necessary to seek medical attention at a regular professional medical institution as soon as possible to identify the cause of the developmental delay. This is usually due to congenital developmental disorders or brain damage caused by ischemia or hypoxia during birth. Generally, it is treated with medications, such as some neurotrophic drugs, followed by rehabilitation therapy. Recovery also varies from person to person.
