Is there really a way to treat short stature?

summary

When a child has dwarfism, his height may be lower than that of his age. Generally speaking, children who are less than two standard heights of the same kind are suspected to have dwarfism. One thing that can be used as a basis for parents to preliminarily judge their children's dwarfism is that when their children's growth height is less than 5cm in a year, they need to seriously doubt whether their children have dwarfism. Some dwarfism will not affect the patient's body shape, but the growth is relatively slow, the child's body shape is symmetrical and normal, but some dwarfism will not only affect the height, but also affect the person's body shape. We study together.

Is there really a way to treat short stature?

First: short stature should be treated as early as possible, not delayed, because the more delayed it is, the bone of the child has healed when he grows up, and it's too late to think about treatment. Treatment of this disease requires different treatment measures according to different causes. It mainly includes nutrition therapy, exercise and psychological therapy, hormone replacement therapy and so on.

Second: in the treatment of dwarfism, hormone therapy plays a very important role, especially the rational use of some growth hormone for the treatment of dwarfism is the most important. Some patients with short stature may be caused by congenital cartilage development problems, which requires active application of hormone therapy.

Third: the power of using growth hormone is generally to inject growth hormone before going to bed, basically once a day, until the patient's bone healing, that is, the bone is not growing, and the earlier the application of growth hormone for treatment, the better the effect.

matters needing attention

One of the advantages of growth hormone therapy is that it has relatively few side effects, but it may cause local redness and swelling after injection, and the body may produce corresponding antibodies after injection, but it will not affect the effect of the drug.
