Question

A child around 5 years old, recently for some unknown reason, often complains of leg pain. What’s the matter if my right arm is thicker than my left?

Answer

Hello, this situation requires a hospital check-up to determine if the thinner side is experiencing growth disorders. It’s best to receive treatment accordingly after diagnosis. Firstly, you should maintain a positive and optimistic attitude. The appearance of pediatric orthopedic diseases can severely affect a patient’s health. In addition to timely treatment, it’s important to pay attention to daily care. Normally, you should protect the affected area, eat a balanced diet, and avoid or reduce the chance of recurrence.
