The fact that a child does not increase the size of shoe or clothes with age could be an indicator of a growth disorder known as Stunted Growth syndrome, which occurs when a person has a height substantially below peers or relatives of the same age and sex group. The prevalence of stunting in Mexico is between 10 and 14 percent, according to data from the National Health and Nutrition Survey 2012. The main treatment is through growth hormone, which is contraindicated in children suffering of diabetes, because the drug increases levels of blood glucose and complicates the health of diabetic patients.
