What are the common treatments for intellectual disability?

Patient's question:

A child with low intelligence, five years old this year, wants to ask the doctor how to treat low intelligence in children. What are the common treatments for low intelligence?

Doctor's answer:

Based on your situation, my speculation is that Baobao is already four months old but still doesn't grasp things well and doesn't turn his head when he hears sounds. It might be that his development is relatively slow, or there could be an issue with his hearing. I suggest taking the baby to the hospital for a health check-up to rule out hearing-related causes. For the patient, if the condition of intellectual disability is severe, timely symptomatic treatment and appropriate medication are necessary. Otherwise, it may lead to a recurrence of intellectual disability. Additionally, the patient needs to maintain a positive mood to avoid worsening the condition.
