Treatment and care of baby ADHD

ADHD is a very common disease. Many parents and teachers are very troubled by its occurrence, and more and more people are paying attention to this disease. If a family has an ADHD patient, the family will often be in chaos, affecting the family's life. However, with people's attention, research on baby ADHD is also developing further. Now there are many methods that have achieved good results in treating ADHD. In fact, in addition to treatment, daily care is also very important. Common treatment methods include the following:

1. Drug treatment. Drug treatment is only needed when ADHD seriously affects children's learning and disrupts family and school order. Medication must be taken as directed by a doctor. Commonly used drugs include amphetamine, methylphenidate, and pemoline.

2. Environmental treatment. The therapeutic effect can be achieved by improving the environment by changing the attitudes of parents, teachers and society towards patients. This includes the following:

(1) Clarify the nature of the disease and treat it correctly. Parents should neither discriminate against, scold or beat them, nor use illness as an excuse to be overly accommodating, making them more willful and aggressive; they should educate their children patiently while also being strict with them. Parents should take the initiative to maintain regular contact with school teachers, provide feedback to each other, and jointly promote the improvement of their children.

(2) Gradually correct hyperactive behavior and encourage children’s quiet behavior. Use verbal praise, encouragement and other reinforcement methods to gradually cultivate their habits of being able to sit still and concentrate on studying and doing things.

(3) Let children participate in a variety of cultural, sports and social activities so that they can have the opportunity to vent their excess energy.

(4) Cultivate good living habits in children. They should be allowed to develop the habit of keeping to a regular schedule and living habits from an early age, ensure adequate sleep, and cultivate good habits of concentrating on one thing at a time from a regular life, for example, not watching TV while eating. Do not indulge your children's interests; for example, do not let them watch TV or movies for an unlimited amount of time.

(5) Eliminate adverse stimuli or mental stress factors that cause ADHD in the family, coordinate family relationships, ease the family atmosphere, and prevent children from becoming restless, anxious, nervous, and excited due to family factors.

The above are the methods and care methods for treating baby's ADHD. Therefore, when your baby has ADHD, you must take your baby to a regular hospital in time to understand the condition and cause of the disease. In addition to treatment, you can also cultivate your baby's attention in daily life and let your child participate in more sports activities. This will not only alleviate the baby's condition but also cultivate the baby's ability.
