Gross motor developmental delay in children refers to the development of movements involving multiple organs and muscle groups, such as running, jumping, climbing, and walking. If a child does not achieve these motor milestones at the expected age, it may be considered gross motor developmental delay. First, it is necessary to visit a正规 hospital for a definitive diagnosis. If diagnosed with significant motor delay, rehabilitation training such as massage and acupuncture should be continued. In addition, children should receive adequate nutrition to prevent nutritional deficiencies.
