Hypotonia, or low muscle tone, is common in dwarfs, but intelligence and lifespan are usually normal. Defining dwarfism by height alone is problematic because short stature in itself is not a disorder. For example, pygmies have adult male heights of less than 150 cm (4 feet 11 inches) on average.efining dwarfism by height alone is problematic because short stature in itself is not a disorder.

1 Cuts, burns, skin infections, rashes and insect bites may cause lymph nodes to get larger. 2  Swollen lymph nodes on the front of the neck could mean your child has a cold or throat infection.  Swollen lymph nodes in the groin could mean your child has an injury near their lower abdomen or legs.
Thanks for posting your query. Swollen lymph node in your childâs case looks like an after effect of the MMR shot and is not something serious. Swollen lymph glands and joint swelling may occur in a very small percentage of patients receiving MMR shots. Any recent viral infection and allergic reaction may also cause swollen lymph nodes. Just apply warm compresses on this lymph node and keep an eye on it. It should go away in 1-2 weeks.
