Sudden Growth Spurt, Falling Sick. Is There A Possible Relation Between The Two Conditions?
My son didn t really get sick from ages 3-12. Over the past year he has gotten sick quite a few times. Also, over the past year he has grown 6 inches and gained 40 lbs. He is very physically active and is approximately 5 4 and 125 lbs. Is there potentially a connection between his growth spurt and getting sick more frequently? Thank You.

Hi Dear
Thanks for query in the HCM,
there is no relation between growth spurt and falling sick.
cause should be investigated for being sick frequently.
diet should be taken care during the growth spurt.
Thanks
