Patient's question:
My son is 11 years old, 130 cm tall, and weighs 24 kg. He has been diagnosed with dwarfism. He is inactive and has a picky eating habit. Some people recommend consuming chicken stewed with Tianqi, while others say that it is not advisable to consume Tianqi before the age of 13. What kind of help does it provide: What are the correct treatment methods for dwarfism?Doctor's answer:
Treatment for short stature:1. Medication treatment: Most patients with short stature can grow taller through medication. The key is to identify the cause of short stature and implement targeted treatment.
2. Non-medication treatment: Proper diet and adequate physical activity. Sufficient exercise not only promotes the secretion of growth hormone but also enhances appetite after the body is well-exercised, which helps with height growth.
Height has a certain relationship with generational inheritance. Additionally, pay close attention to checking for deficiencies in trace elements. It is recommended to have blood tests for trace elements at the hospital's hematology department. Based on the test results, focus on digestion, enhance nutrition, and engage in appropriate physical activity.
