What to do if your child has language barriers

Patients with language disorders will have problems with speaking, and may even have incomplete speech function, and may even have other complications. Everyone needs to be particularly careful in daily life and do the corresponding work. There should be good improvement in language expression disorders, and as they grow older, they should be slowly cared for and guided.

The use of medication to treat speech disorders caused by localized brain or peripheral neuropathy in adults mainly targets the primary disease, while language training is performed during the recovery period.

There are two types of language disorders caused by developmental delay: expressive language disorders and receptive language disorders. For those with receptive language disorders, the focus is on training speech comprehension, auditory memory, and auditory perception. For those with expressive language disorders, the focus is on training the children to imitate other people's speech, and it is best for parents to participate in the training as well.

People with expressive language disorders have a good prognosis and can gradually acquire language skills as they age without treatment, but they may have difficulty learning. The prognosis for people with receptive language disorders is poor, and their language ability may be restored to varying degrees after special training. Children with mild symptoms recover better, while those with severe symptoms recover worse. In severe cases, there is also partial hearing loss, which is almost impossible to cure.

Diet and health care: The diet should be light, pay attention to hygiene, and match meals reasonably. Preventive care There is no effective prevention measure for this disease. Early detection and early diagnosis are the key to the prevention and treatment of this disease. Language disorders caused by developmental delay, which are not caused by hearing impairment, organic damage to the central nervous system and severe mental retardation, are called developmental aphasis. Edited by Shen Xiaoming. Clinical Pediatrics reports that 7% to 10% of children have language development below normal standards, and 3% to 6% of children have language perception or expression disorders, which affect their future reading and writing.

In addition, there are currently 7 million deaf-mute people in the country, the vast majority of whom are pre-lingually deaf.

The speech disorders discussed here mainly refer to speech disorders caused by localized brain or peripheral neuropathy, including dysarthria and aphasia. The incidence of speech disorders [dysarthria and/or aphasia] caused by brain diseases, especially cerebrovascular diseases, is quite high. According to the epidemiological survey data of cerebrovascular disease in six cities in 1982, the annual incidence rate of cerebrovascular disease in China was 182/100,000 population, and the prevalence rate of medical treatment was 620/100,000 population. Data from recent years show that cerebrovascular disease has become the leading cause of illness and death among adults.
