    ADHD is mainly caused by the following 4 points**

    1. The number of cranial neurotransmitters is insufficient. The concentration of neurotransmitters in the brain, such as norepinephrine and dopamine, decreases, weakens the inhibitory activity of the central nervous system, and makes the child move more. Therefore, children with ADHD must first consider medications**.

    Parents should be especially aware of this reason for non-breastfed children.

    2. Organic damage to brain tissue. Maternal hypertension, thyroid hypertrophy, nephritis, anemia, low-grade fever, threatened miscarriage, cold, etc. abnormal delivery process; Within 1 to 2 years of the child's birth, there is an infection or trauma to the central nervous system. Such children are susceptible to ADHD.

    3. Genetic factors. Some people believe that genetic factors such as congenital physical defects and organ abnormalities, chromosomal abnormalities, and parental mental illness can affect children's brain function to varying degrees, resulting in congenital physical defects and leading to hyperactivity.

    4. Other factors. Improper education methods and excessive early intellectual development, environmental pressure far exceeds the child's psychological capacity, resulting in the child's psychological development lagging and self-control ability decreased. In addition, excessive intake of artificial colors in food and foods with excessive lead content may not necessarily lead poisoning, but may lead to ADHD.

    ADHD in children is complex, and if you can't make an accurate diagnosis, you can't get the desired effect for your child's condition. Blindness** can even aggravate the child's condition. **ADHD should choose a professional hospital, technology and experts to safely and quickly improve the child's condition, and drive away the haze and future problems of ADHD for the child.

    Experts from Fuzhou Drum Tower Hospital: ADHD in children**.

    1.Neurological and chemical factors.

    In the RAS, a network activation system that is in charge of learning, self-inhibition, and motivation, there are neurotransmitters such as catecholamines, dopamine, norepinephrine, and 3-methoxy4-hydroxyphenyl glycol, which are in charge of attention. If these substances are deficient or these neurotransmitters are disordered, it can easily lead to ADHD in children.

    2.Damage to the prefrontal lobes of the brain.

    New imaging techniques such as PET have found that the prefrontal lobes of the brain are damaged, and the blood flow to the cerebral cortex is reduced, resulting in low brain function, which is also one of the causes of ADHD in children.

    3.Environmental factors.

    The prevalence of ADHD can be affected by factors such as malnutrition, smoking, excessive stress, and infections during pregnancy. At the same time, factors such as premature babies or head injuries during dystocia may also be factors that cause ADHD.

    4.Hereditary factors.

    In many studies of the ADHD gene, it has been found that 30% of parents or siblings of children with ADHD also have attention deficit problems.

    Introduction: The appearance of ADHD may be caused by the fact that if a pregnant woman suffers from hypertension and anemia during pregnancy, the fetus will suffer organic damage to the brain tissue in the mother's body, and the child is very likely to suffer from ADHD after birth, which is also the main cause of ADHD. In addition, after the birth of the child, if the feeding nutrition is insufficient, the child's cranial neurotransmitter number is insufficient, which will also cause ADHD, such as the decrease in the concentration of norepinephrine, which will also inhibit the inhibitory activity of the child's central system, so that the child has ADHD.

    In addition, it may be because family factors will also lead to behavioral abnormalities such as ADHD in the process of children's growth, such as family relationships are not harmonious or parents scold children to educate their children, which will greatly affect the child's spirit, plus the child's psychological development is immature, it is easy to have some abnormal behavior.

    After ADHD, the child's attention is inattentive and can easily be distracted by external factors. Just toys and games that are very interesting should not allow children to sit there quietly. When someone is talking, they will look around, and they will interrupt others to talk and want to make their own speeches, and it is very easy to be distracted when playing, unable to concentrate on their own work and things, and difficult to obey parents' orders.

    And they don't often sit in one place, always going around playing regardless of the occasion. Even if you ask your child to be quiet, your child will still make noise. There are times when you get particularly impatient during the game, and you will do something ahead of time without clear instructions.

    If you want to improve ADHD, you need to manage your child's behavior on a daily basis, and parents should ensure that your child's daily activities are inhibited, such as getting up to play, learning to sleep. When your child is young, keep your child's personal belongings in one place and encourage your child to keep toys in the same place after playing. If the child can improve the behavior, parents must encourage the child in time, so that the child can build self-confidence.

    Finally, if parents want to improve their child's ADHD, they must have enough patience, because the process is relatively long, and it is difficult to say that the child's problem can be improved through drugs or other means, and many small things need to be done to help the child improve the problem.
