A member asked:

What causes people to have flat faces and a short stature?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Abnormal facies: The characteristics describe could be apart of any number of genetic syndromes or merely familial in origin. This kind of question could only be accurately answered given a medical and family history, growth charts, and photos. Anything else would be shots in the dark.
