Question
My child’s growth in height is slow, what are the possible symptoms of dwarfism?
Answer
The symptoms of dwarfism include being shorter than the normal standard for the same age group and having a growth rate below average. Parents should pay attention to their child’s growth and seek an accurate diagnosis early on, in order to treat the symptoms appropriately. Avoid using unproven height-increasing products or methods to prevent any adverse effects on the child’s body. If the child is diagnosed with an endocrine disorder, immediate medical treatment should be sought, along with attention to diet and hygiene habits.
