My 9-year-old daughter is small for her age and below the growth chart norm. She had a bone test that said the age of her bones was 7 years. How can that be and what does it mean?
I have been getting red patches on my face and neck that look like sunburn. There is no swelling or bumps. But lately they've been getting more red and prominent — especially around the neck. What might cause this?
My daughter is almost 5 years old, and she already perspires with an odor. She's very active. But I wash her underarm area very well, morning and night. Should she be wearing deodorant? What else can I do?
My 9-month-old son was accidentally vaccinated twice for diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis, hepatitis b, polio and pneumococcal conjugate. Should I be concerned?
My son is almost 8 years old. He has recently shown some early signs of puberty. Bone x-rays showed advanced bone age of 9 years. Lab results for hormones were normal. Is this true precocious puberty? How often does this happen in boys? Does this mean he will progress rapidly through puberty if he is not treated with medications? What are our options?
