Park Hye-young, chairman of the Bareun Growth Clinic at Himchan General Hospital in Incheon, presented the cause and solution of the child's sluggish growth because he is smaller than his peers in TV Chosun 'Kidentime 2' aired on the 7th.
Kim Seung-hoon (10), the writer of the story, is usually honest and bright, but he feels uncomfortable in his life due to his small physique and height, and even though he goes to the Taekwondo studio, he gets tired quickly and returns without attending all classes. In addition, parents were worried because they often suffered from fatigue and pain in their feet even if they overdo it or walk a little because of flat feet. In particular, because he was short, he could not get along with his friends well and his friendship was not smooth, so he was hurt and stressed.
As a result, flat feet themselves do not directly affect height growth, but if your feet get tired during exercise or daily life, you will be less active, which can hinder your growth, so if you have severe flat feet, it is recommended to use insoles for outdoor activities. In addition, in the broadcast, it was revealed that he suffered from colds and rhinitis, so he did not do any physical activity, such as taking medicine after eating and sleeping on the sofa in the living room immediately. Therefore, he also asked for the need to improve the sleep environment because high-quality sleep is important for height growth.
Currently, Kim Seung-hoon is about 126cm tall, about 8 to 9cm shorter than the average height of his peers. The hospital conducted various tests, including physical measurement, imaging tests, endocrine tests, and hormone tests, and conducted growth hormone deficiency stimulation tests to identify the exact cause. As a result of the test, it was diagnosed as growth hormone deficiency and found that the bone age was two years younger than the actual age. Accordingly, a plan was proposed to combine growth hormone injection treatment and lifestyle improvement that helps growth.
Park Hye-young, chairman of the Barun Growth Clinic at Himchan General Hospital in Incheon, said "In the case of children with growth hormone deficiency, if growth hormone injection treatment supplements insufficient growth hormone, we can expect remarkable growth.""If lifestyle improvements, which are important for growth, are combined with treatment, the growth effect can be further enhanced" he advised."
In the segment looking for adult joint health and hidden height, Kim Hong-seop (70, male), who had a hard time going out due to knee pain in the first episode, had artificial joint surgery and recovery process for degenerative arthritis treatment.
At that time, Kim Hong-seop had severe pain every time he walked because his left knee was in stage 4 arthritis and his right knee was in stage 3 arthritis, and there was also an X-shape deformation of about 7 degrees due to knee arthritis.
In the broadcast, a brighter appearance was revealed, such as visiting a valley that he usually did not go well after being discharged from the hospital and holding an event for his wife to thank her. However, the medical staff advised not to get it because there is a risk of infection if acupuncture or injections are given around the knee after artificial joint surgery.
Kim Yoo-geun, head of the orthopedic surgery hospital at Bupyeong Himchan Hospital, said, "Artificial joint surgery required artificial joint surgery on the left knee, which removes cartilage and bones damaged by arthritis, inserts artificial joints that fit the patient's size into thigh bones and shin bones, and inserts artificial cartilage into them." "If you continue to work out your muscles around your knees after artificial joint surgery, you will have no difficulty in walking on a daily basis in the future.", he explained. Immediately after artificial joint surgery, there is inevitable pain, but as time passes, the pain improves, so you can walk painlessly three months after the average surgery.
