All individuals with autism spectrum disorder have social communication problems. Social communication disorders are also found in individuals with other conditions, such as traumatic brain injury.<\/li>\n<li>Cognitive-communication disorders include problems organizing thoughts, paying attention, remembering, planning, and\/or problem-solving. These disorders usually happen as a result of a stroke, traumatic brain injury, or dementia, although they can be congenital.<\/li>\n<li>Swallowing disorders (dysphagia) are feeding and swallowing difficulties, which may be congenital or follow an illness, surgery, stroke, or injury<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>If you or a loved one is experiencing difficulty in any of these areas, consult a speech-language pathologist.
