Patient's question:
My son has been born for 7 months. He eats a lot, but he is only 50 cm tall. Compared to children of the same age, he is very short. What is the reason?Doctor's answer:
Generally, for male babies, the height is between 88.5-93.2 centimeters. As long as the child's height does not differ significantly from the normal range, there is usually no major issue. Each baby's development is different; some may develop earlier, while others may take a bit longer. It is important to ensure balanced nutrition, supplement with calcium appropriately, maintain sufficient sleep, and engage in regular exercise.
