Patient's question:
A newborn baby is suspected of having Down syndrome. How should it be carefully examined? What are the main symptoms of Down syndrome?Doctor's answer:
Hello. As there are currently no newly invented drugs that can lower the intelligence of individuals with intellectual disabilities, the treatment of Down syndrome primarily relies on guidance. However, the condition is often accompanied by other diseases such as respiratory infections, gastrointestinal issues, congenital heart disease, and thyroid dysfunction, which can be recovered or controlled. Down syndrome causes significant harm to children. Once family members notice symptoms in their child, they should immediately take them to a regular hospital for diagnosis. At the same time, they should pay close attention to the child's care, recommend a proper diet, and avoid spicy and harmful foods. It is hoped that the child can receive professional treatment to help them recover!
