Delayed speech or language development
Delayed speech or language development means a child is not reaching communication milestones on time. This can involve difficulty forming words, building sentences, or understanding spoken language. Common causes include hearing impairment, autism spectrum disorder and oral-motor difficulties. At AVN Arogya, our physicians assess it as part of care for Autism & ASD, Down’s Syndrome and Global Developmental Delay.
