Question

My child doesn’t seem very tall; am I worried about them having dwarfism?

Answer

If you’re concerned about your child’s height, it’s advisable to take them to the hospital for an assessment. If a diagnosis of dwarfism is confirmed, a detailed examination should be conducted to find the cause and receive appropriate treatment. Meanwhile, pay attention to a balanced diet, consume adequate nutrition, and engage in exercises that promote growth, such as jumping rope and playing basketball. If a child is diagnosed with dwarfism, parents should take them to the doctor promptly, avoid self-medication, and closely monitor their symptoms to help them receive timely treatment.
