Patient's question:
My son is one year and ten months old and is only 80 cm tall. He plays quite well and there are no apparent abnormalities in his intelligence. Could he have dwarfism? What kind of detailed examinations should I take him for?Doctor's answer:
Now that the child is still young, they will focus on growth and development. However, you can also have a thorough examination at the orthopedics department. In daily life, it is also important to eat more nutritious foods and maintain good personal hygiene. Pay attention to rest and diet, and avoid using any medications blindly. Short stature can be very harmful to children. If family members notice any symptoms, they should take the child to a regular hospital for diagnosis immediately. At the same time, they should pay close attention to the child's care issues. It is recommended to maintain a balanced diet in daily life to help the child receive professional treatment and aid their recovery!
