She says that all the parents know the importance of immunization in children, but often they forget about regular health checkups. According to Dr Vinita, growth charting is not about the weight and length of the baby, but also head circumference charting. Sometimes when head circumference increases more than two standard deviations, it needs to be investigated as it can lead to a severe condition like hydrocephalus which can have a severe impact on child's life. Dr Vinita recommends regular yearly checkups for children above two years for their physical & social well being.
