Patient's question:
Born with a difficult delivery, he was found to be short from the age of three months. However, his father was also short as a child but later grew to 182 cm, so it wasn't a concern. It wasn't until he started kindergarten that he was noticed to be shorter than his peers. At the Jinan Children's Hospital, he was diagnosed with growth hormone deficiency.Doctor's answer:
Hello, height is generally related to genetics, growth hormone levels, and nutritional status. It's a good idea to have children take appropriate calcium supplements to increase nutrition, pay attention to physical exercise, and if possible, supplement with growth hormone, which usually improves the condition. The issue of short stature has always troubled parents. When treating this disease, consider adopting general treatment methods. Parents can only use professional methods to help children recover from the disease as soon as possible, so as not to affect their growth and development. Therefore, after a child's illness occurs, parents must help them recover as soon as possible.
