Patient's question:
My child is quite active and never stays still. After checking at the hospital, it was diagnosed as ADHD. What would be the best approach to handle ADHD?Doctor's answer:
Hello: According to the situation you described, it is best to perform an electroencephalogram for the baby to assist in diagnosis. Tourette syndrome or ADHD is a chronic childhood illness, so during the treatment process, it is necessary to strictly follow the expert's treatment plan and endure the treatment for it to be effective. While medication is being administered, the cooperation of parents is also very important. Help the child establish a proper schedule of activities, and absolutely avoid overexertion. It is essential to maintain sufficient deep sleep. In the family environment, direct and sensitive language should not be used to explicitly mention the child's symptoms. When the child has a twitch, it is best to ignore it and give the child more encouragement to build confidence and relieve stress. The child should balance work and rest, avoid overexertion, and communicate with the school teachers.
