Patient's question:
When studying, how to teach and explain still doesn't make sense, and I suspect I might be mentally retarded. What symptoms might this condition have? Please ask: What are the typical signs of intellectual disability in the early stages?Doctor's answer:
Hello, patients with low intelligence show symptoms such as:1. Impaired motor function
2. Significant delays in movement, language, and behavior compared to peers of the same age
3. Lack of alertness in the eyes, inability to consciously focus on objects, and poor concentration that does not last
4. Poor response to surrounding stimuli, and emotions that do not change with the external environment
5. Frequent mouth gaping, tongue protrusion, drooling, and bruxism (teeth grinding). They often exhibit unconscious facial expressions and crying or screaming.
It is recommended that you go to a regular hospital for diagnosis and treatment to prevent the condition from worsening and causing greater harm to the body.
Children during their developmental stage are also in a phase where their memory is increasing. Memory varies from child to child—some have good memory, while others are a bit weaker. Sometimes, it may be due to a lack of trace elements.
