A member asked:
My son is 14 and half and is very small for his age roughly round about 4 ft 8 and he weighs 4 stone 12 do you think he is under weight and should i be concerned?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
He is underweight: I would do a full work-up on him including lab work and bone age and review his growth chart.
