POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 5 m old boy5 months agoA. Down syndrome is a genetic condition caused by an extra copy of chromosome 21. It affects physical and cognitive development, leading to distinct facial features, developmental delays, and possible health issues.
Common Signs & Symptoms: Facial Features – Flat facial profile, upward-slanting eyes, small ears, and a short neck. Growth & Development – Delayed milestones like sitting, crawling, and walking. Cognitive & Speech Delays – Slower learning and delayed speech development. Low Muscle Tone – Makes movements appear floppy. Health Issues – Increased risk of heart defects, hearing loss, thyroid problems, and digestive issues.
Early intervention with therapy (speech, physical, occupational) and regular medical checkups help children with Down syndrome lead healthier lives. If you suspect Down syndrome in a child, a genetic test (karyotype test) can confirm the diagnosis.
