Can patients with intellectual disability fully recover?

Patient's question:

I want to consult how to recover my child's attention deficit, irritability, and lack of deep sleep without practicing treatment, and how to make them stop being irritable.

Doctor's answer:

Mental retardation, also known as intellectual disability, is classified into different levels based on IQ. Whether it can be recovered or how much the intelligence decreases depends on the severity of the condition. For mild intellectual disability, rehabilitation training and treatment can usually help the child's intellectual development reach as close to the average level of their peers as possible. For moderate to severe intellectual disability, it is difficult to surpass rehabilitation. Intellectual disability can cause significant harm to children, so it is recommended that parents take their child to a specialized clinic for follow-up treatment under the guidance of a doctor. In daily life, it is okay to give the child some juice, which is beneficial for digesting vitamins and preventing stomach problems. We hope the child can recover as soon as possible!
