Chapter 248: Autism
Seeing Li Xiyang bend down and put the tweezers into the child's nostrils again, Qian Min said, "Doctor Li, I have checked it, and there is nothing in it!"
"Really?"
The end of the tweezers had clearly touched a hard object.
Then I saw Li Xiyang's hand pull back little by little, and a model the size of a grain of rice was taken out of the child's nose.
Qian Min looked ashamed, he had just checked it several times, but he still missed it.
Li Xiyang didn't care about Qian Min's mistake, because this model was very deep, if he hadn't heard the sound of filial piety in the child's upper respiratory tract, he would probably have ignored it.
And
The model turned out to be a doctor.
Police, firefighters, doctors...
Li Xiyang thinks this is a bit strange!
"Kid, why are you putting this in your nose?"
Li Xiyang asked, but the little guy blinked with big eyes and didn't speak.
The child's sister was a little embarrassed and said, "Doctor, my brother is a bit stupid, he is three years old, and he can't speak."
Li Xiyang shook his head, he couldn't speak at the age of three, and he was indeed late.
However, this is not directly related to the level of IQ.
The average three-year-old child can't speak, and there can be a variety of reasons, such as hearing impairment.
This is generally due to congenital deafness, which makes it impossible to accept verbal stimuli from the surrounding environment, has no ambiguous objects, and does not hear sounds, resulting in an inability to speak.
For example, children with cerebral palsy or mental retardation will have a very late language comprehension and language expression, and it is also very common for three-year-old children to not be able to speak.
However, through Li Xiyang's observation, this kid reacted to his words, and his eyes were very bright, not very similar.
In addition, Li Xiyang thought of a possibility.
"This kid may have autism!"
The boy's sister was stunned, "What kind of disease is that?"
Li Xiyang said, "Autistic children often have no desire to communicate with others, do not like to communicate with others, and their language will be poor, and more autistic children will not be able to speak until the age of three."
"Oh, I just said this kid is stupid, it turns out to be autism!"
Li Xiyang shook his head, "You're wrong!"
Autistic children are not necessarily stupid, but there is a problem with their social dysfunction.
On the contrary, many children with autism tend to be geniuses.
"Genius?"
"Just him?"
The girl was clearly unconvinced.
In her opinion, she has always felt that her brother is stupid.
Li Xiyang did not argue on this topic, but once again put the tweezers into the child's nostrils.
Qian Min was stunned, "And?"
Slowly, as Li Xiyang's tweezers stretched deeper, he really touched a hard object again.
Slowly took it out and saw that it was a rubber kitten.
The boy's sister's eyes widened suddenly, and she was shocked, "Isn't this the little decoration on my manicure?"
She had applied a manicure before, and when she woke up from her last sleep, she found that it had fallen out, and she thought it had fallen outside.
How can it be in my brother's nose?
Looking at the kitten, the boy clapped his palms and giggled.
The little one is very happy.
Picking up the kitten and reaching out to his sister, the little boy said in a milky voice, "Sister, give!"
The girl was stunned.
"You... Can you speak?"
Li Xiyang said with a smile, "Autistic children have social dysfunction, not language disorders, they don't like to talk, it's not that they can't speak, of course, they are different from people who make themselves feel comfortable, it seems that he likes you very much!"
"Huh?!"
The girl looked at her brother with shame on her face.
She has always felt that since she had this little guy, her parents don't care about her, so she has always hated this younger brother.
When I brought my younger brother to the hospital, I was more worried about my parents' blame.
"He... Does he really like me?"
The girl suddenly remembered that her parents had gone back to their hometown to take their younger brother with them.
But as soon as his parents carried him out of the door, they cried.
When you're with yourself, you'll be obedient.
Is this true?
The little guy she hates so much is actually close to herself.
The girl blamed herself and regretted it in her heart.
Putting the tweezers back into the instrument tray, Li Xiyang reached out and rubbed the little boy's head.
Now he finally understood why the little boy was stuffing toys into his nostrils.
It should have been that he picked up the kitten that fell off his sister's manicure, accidentally sucked it into his nose, and then he stuffed a doctor model, a firefighter model, and a police model into his nose one after another.
He's looking for a helper to help him save the kitten.
Hearing Li Xiyang's explanation, Qian Min and the girl were shocked.
It's not stupid for a three-year-old child to know about this situation and need to find a doctor, police, firefighter.
On the contrary, smart.
The girl asked Li Xiyang even more anxiously, "Doctor, how can my brother be treated for this disease?"
At this moment, she really cares about her brother's body.
Li Xiyang sighed slightly, "At present, the most common treatment method for autistic children is training intervention, but most of them lack evidence of evidence-based medicine."
In recent decades, many experts and scholars at home and abroad have made a lot of explorations on autism, but they have not found the optimal treatment plan.
Many examples suggest that autism is most likely caused by a genetic process.
It is during the first few weeks of fetal development and growth in the mother's womb that the fetus's brain development is disordered and disordered, which leads to autism after birth.
Ninety percent of autism may be caused by mental disorders, so it can be understood as a mental illness.
And the eucalyptus case of autism being cured has never been seen before.
The girl despaired, "Is there really no way?"
Li Xiyang said, "Autism, in fact, is also called autism, although the root cause of this disease cannot be cured, but after unremitting training and correction, there are still many ways to be able to take care of themselves and live independently.
Although training cannot completely cure children with autism, the corrective effect of training on autistic patients cannot be ignored.
Decades of research and practice at home and abroad have proved that autistic children have strong plasticity, and their development direction is completely different whether they are taught or not, and whether they are taught properly.
A good direction is that they can gradually develop social adaptability, self-care ability, interpersonal skills, and even work in a certain job after receiving training to achieve self-reliance.
Otherwise, it is difficult for children with autism to gradually get better as they grow older, but on the contrary, they often develop more and more serious emotional, psychological, behavioral and other disorders, making the society around them and even their families feel more and more intolerable to them.
As a result of being rejected by others, children with autism will experience more and more frustration, which will further push them into a more autistic state."
