Doctor's answer (1)
Dr. Ma Yan
A 4-year-old child's inability to speak may be due to hearing impairment or abnormal development of speech organs, delayed central nervous system development, or possibly caused by autism. If a 4-year-old cannot speak, it is best to take the child to the hospital for relevant examinations. After identifying the cause, follow the doctor's guidance for proper treatment. Avoid using medications blindly to prevent adverse effects.
