How is childhood stuttering treated?

Patient's question:

The child has been crying non-stop recently and isn't eating much. How should childhood stuttering be treated?

Doctor's answer:

If a baby stutters, it is generally considered to be caused by poor development of language function. In such cases, it is best to take them to the neurorehabilitation department of a children's hospital for a cranial magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and an electroencephalogram (EEG) to rule out any cranial developmental abnormalities. If there are none, implementing rehabilitation exercises for language function should be very beneficial for such children.
