Hello,
You need to consult your pediatrician for clinical assessment of developmental milestones. It has to be assessed which aspect of development is lagging behind the other - motor, sensory or neurological.
Certain investigations may be required to diagnose the condition and thus management.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Shailja Puri, Pathologist and Microbiologist
