Growth symptoms:
Symptoms related to poor or excessive growth.
Introduction:
Correct levels of growth are extremely important health indicators
for infants, children, and adolescents.
Several medical conditions cause poor growth
which is often called failure to thrive when it occurs in infants.
In some cases, excessive growth can indicate a medical condition
for infants or children (and less commonly in adults).
Changes in weight such as unexplained weight loss or weight gain
may need medical investigation.
Any growth abnormality warrants early professional medical diagnosis,
especially for infants and children.
