A solution to the growth of a short child ahead of puberty, seeking from 'KiddenTime2'
Oct 25, 2024
Park Hye-young, chairman of the Bareun Growth Clinic at Himchan General Hospital in Incheon, seeks a solution to the growth of a child who is worried about being shorter than his peers ahead of entering middle school on TV Chosun "Kidden Time 2" scheduled to air on the 26th.
The main character of the story is Ahn Si-woo, a sixth grader in elementary school, who is worried about his mother because of his daily life of spending time alone, such as games, rather than external physical activities. In particular, games are hindering growth due to inability to concentrate on mealtime or delayed bedtime.
Park Hye-young, chairman of the Bareun Growth Clinic at Himchan General Hospital in Incheon, said "If a growing child uses a cell phone for a long time before he or she goes to sleep, the light from the screen inhibits the secretion of melatonin hormones that help him or her sleep, which hinders his or her growth."
Currently, Ahn Si-woo is 141cm tall, about 12cm shorter than his peers in the sixth grade. Although he is shorter than his peers in the lower quintile, it was not low growth due to a lack of growth hormones. However, in the process of confirming the reason why physical development was slow and secondary sexual characteristics did not appear, the problem of male hormone shortage was confirmed.
Since secondary sexual characteristics appear in normal puberty and rapid growth of height also progresses, a lack of sexual hormones may lead to a problem in which the secondary sexual characteristics are not properly expressed and the rapid growth phase is not expressed. Through broadcasting, it also solves various questions such as the appropriate time and method to receive treatment when there is a lack of sex hormones and how to manage the health of adolescent children who are in a rapid growth period.
In the corner that finds the joint health and hidden height of adults, the story of Ha Mi-soon (female, 59) who has difficulty in daily life due to hip and knee pain will be introduced. Ha Mi-soon has been working at a restaurant for 20 years, and is currently unable to work due to severe hip, hip, and knee pain, and her one leg is shortened due to collapsed joint health, making all daily life uncomfortable. In broadcasting, the cause of pain is diagnosed through tests and the surgical process is disclosed.
Kim Yoo-geun, head of the orthopedic surgery hospital at Bupyeong Himchan Hospital, said "Hip joint patients tend to complain of extreme pain rather than knee arthritis patients." Like Ha Mi-soon, detailed information on the order in which both knees and hip joints should be treated when they are sick can also be found on the broadcast on the 26th.
