Twin brothers who are suffering from shortness, reveal the cause and treatment of low kidney in 'Kidden Time 2'

Park Hye-young, chairman of the Barun Growth Clinic at Himchan General Hospital in Incheon, will explore the causes of hypodilation and growth of short identical twin brothers in the 100th quartile on TV Chosun 'Kidden Time 2' scheduled to air on the 9th.

Even though twin brothers Kim Gun-woo and Si-woo are in the third grade of elementary school, both children are about 121cm tall, which is only the average height of first-year elementary school boys. In broadcasting, we observe daily life and identify factors that hinder the growth of the two children's height. The twin brothers checked the current bone age, predicted height, and cause of hypotension through various tests and hormone tests, including physical measurements, at Himchan General Hospital in Incheon.

The twin brothers, who are the lowest of 100 in height, were nearly three years younger in bone age, so they performed a growth hormone stimulation test to see if there was a pathological cause that could cause hypodension. Fortunately, the growth hormone was identified as normal and was diagnosed as idiopathic hypodermic rather than pathological hypodermic.



Park Hye-young, chairman of the Barun Growth Clinic at Himchan General Hospital in Incheon, said "It is idiopathic hypodystrophy with no pathological cause that can cause hypodystrophy, which falls into the bottom 1 percentile and is the subject of growth hormone treatment." Through the case of identical twin brothers, it points out the short idiopathic hypotension without pathological causes that can cause hypotension, and solves questions such as growth therapy and treatment period of idiopathic hypotension children.

In the corner that finds the joint health and hidden height of adults, the story of Yeo Soon-im, who is living alone, is introduced, even though her daily life is difficult due to back pain. Due to the difficult economic situation, even if the back pain is severe, it is not properly treated and is living alone, so the social worker in charge reported. It explains in detail the spinal health condition and spinal stenosis disease of Yeo Soon-im, who cannot walk properly.



"Spinal duct stenosis is a disease that causes back pain or nerve symptoms such as numbness in the legs due to narrowing of the vertebral tube or nerve space in the center of the spine," said Kim Yoo-geun, head of the orthopedic surgery hospital at Bupyeong Himchan Hospital. "If you take a shopping cart sign position where you bend your back forward when walking due to back pain, you can suspect spinal duct stenosis."
