Question

What could be the causes of pediatric scapular prominence?

Answer

Pediatric scapular prominence may be caused by bone hyperplasia. Patients can take Wan Tong Jin Guo Pian (a traditional Chinese medicine) or opt for closed treatment, and surgical treatment may be considered if necessary. At the same time, it’s important to ensure adequate rest and nutrition, and to avoid consuming spicy and irritating foods. Additionally, the occurrence of pediatric orthopedic diseases can severely affect a patient’s health. Apart from symptomatic treatment, patients need to pay more attention to daily care, protect the affected area, and pay attention to a reasonable diet to reduce the chance of recurrence.
