Have you ever noticed that peculiarly, a child is exhibiting delayed development and unusual physical characteristics? It is because there are childhood disorders–termed developmental disorders that affect the children. There are different types of developmental disabilities that create impairments in physical, language, learning, or behavior areas. For example, a child would not be socially active or avoid eye contact or react to a situation differently than others. These childhood conditions have a large impact on daily life and can last for a lifetime if there are no therapeutic interventions for the same.
These types of developmental disabilities often affect multiple domains of the brain, cause of nature, and the extent of brain dysfunction. While these developmental disabilities in a child can be sometimes diagnosed at the time of birth–mostly, it is hard to identify anything until they have reached ages three to six. You would feel that compared to other children of their age, the child is not meeting his/her age-appropriate milestones or having issues with how they play, learn, speak, act or move. The extent of these disabilities ranges from mild to severe depending on the symptoms, however, acting early and bringing early intervention methods can help to ensure proper management of symptoms and can make a great difference. Sometimes the children exhibits regression in previous development due to seizure , Autism, and other neurological issues which also needs proper diagnosis and therapeutic intervention along with medical for executing proper development and seizing of further regression.
