Snoring at night, not eating, not growing tall - how to solve it

Patient's question:

All symptoms: Unable to eat, snoring while sleeping, 11 years old, 20 kg, 1.1 meters tall. Onset time and cause: Always been like this. Treatment history: Had surgery for small intestine prolapse at the age of 3. Haven't seen a doctor since then. Help needed: Want to give him a comprehensive examination.

Doctor's answer:

Snoring can cause varying degrees of hypoxia. Over time, it can lead to changes in the structural composition of the inner part of the cerebral cortex, damage brain tissue, and result in dementia. Snoring can exacerbate the burden on various organs in the body, disrupt the endocrine function of the human body, and consequently cause damage to multiple systems, tissues, and organs, leading to various diseases such as high blood lipids, diabetes, and stroke. The hypoxia caused by snoring is particularly harmful to the cardiovascular system, which can lead to high blood pressure, myocardial infarction, arrhythmia, cerebral thrombosis, cardiopulmonary failure, and even sudden death at night.
