What Causes Asymmetrical Limbs And Face In A Child?

My 6month old s arm, leg, & face is larger on the right side than the left. She has had an ultrasound to see if any internal organs are larger than the other side, but they were all normal. I still am concerned because even though they aren t different in length, the size difference is very noticeable. What could the cause be?

Hi,

It is most likely congenital because it is idiopathic. No need to worry at all. All mothers have a concern about their child. If a child has issues in feeding, sleeping or playing, then consult a peediatrician otherwise there is no need to worry at all.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Hazan
