Sir, My son is 2 yrs old and till date he is not speaking. but his helath condition is good. He can walk, understanding anything but the interaction is low. some times he block his ears in his hands at the time of watching Television. The local doctor recommended Normabrain syrub and multivitamin syrub and MRI scan in the brain. so give your opinion.

Hello,
A two-year-old child usually starts speaking bi-syllables, two-three word sentences and has a vocabulary of 50 words.
If your child is not speaking at all at the age of two, then probably there is a delay in the attainment of developmental milestones.
I suggest you consult your pediatrician for a developmental assessment of your child.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Shailja Puri, Pathologist and Microbiologist
