Common Types of Speech Disorders
Speech disorders can manifest in various ways, affecting different aspects of communication. Here are some common types of speech disorders that are treated at Speech Therapy Karachi:
Articulation and Phonological Disorders
Articulation and phonological disorders are common types of speech disorders that can significantly impact a person’s communication ability.
These disorders involve difficulties with producing sounds or sound patterns correctly. People with articulation disorders may substitute, omit, or distort certain sounds, making their speech difficult to understand. Phonological disorders refer to problems with understanding and using the rules that govern the sounds in language.
Children with these diseases may have trouble properly formulating words, making it difficult for them to express themselves. It may be challenging for others to understand what they are saying since they omit some sounds or replace them with others.
Fluency Disorders
Fluency disorders are everyday speech disorders that can significantly impact communication. The flow of their speech may be interrupted by repetitions of sounds, syllables, or entire words in people with fluency difficulties. Additionally, they might make sounds that last a long time or have silences when they struggle to make any sound.
Fluency disorders include conditions like stuttering and cluttering. Stuttering is characterized by disruptions in the flow of speech, such as repetitions, prolongations, or blocks on certain sounds or words. Cluttering involves rapid and unclear speech due to excessive breaks or disorganized thoughts.
Voice Disorders
Voice disorders alter a person’s voice’s quality, pitch, loudness, or resonance. These conditions may substantially negatively impact a person’s capacity for efficient communication and may cause irritation or humiliation. These can result from vocal nodules/polyps/tumours, misuse/abuse of vocal cords, neurological conditions (e.g., spasmodic dysphonia), or congenital anomalies.
Language-Based Disorders
Language-based speech disorders affect a person’s ability to use language effectively for communication purposes. It includes expressive language disorder (difficulty expressing thoughts) and receptive language disorder (difficulty understanding spoken/written information).
Children with language-based disorders often require speech therapy to improve their communication skills. Therapists can use techniques such as repetition exercises, word association games, and storytelling activities to help enhance vocabulary development, sentence construction, and comprehension abilities.
Motor Speech Disorders
Motor speech disorders involve impairments in the muscle movements required for precise articulation and pronunciation. These disorders occur when there is a disruption in the brain’s control over the muscles and activities involved in speaking.
