Doctors for Marasmus Treatment in Navi Mumbai

Marasmus is a severe form of malnutrition that happens when a person, often a child, does not get enough food for a long time. The body starts using its own fat and muscle for energy, causing extreme weight loss, weakness, and a very thin appearance. It can make someone look "wasted" and leaves them more likely to get sick.

Symptoms such as irritability, weakness and recurrent infections may be signs of marasmus. When these symptoms persist, worsen, or interfere with daily activities, medical evaluation can help determine the underlying condition and the need for treatment.

At Medicover Hospitals in Navi Mumbai, experienced pediatricians evaluate and treat patients with marasmus. Based on the diagnosis, severity of the condition and individual health needs, our doctors recommend suitable treatment and ongoing care.

Our specialists support patients at different stages of the condition, from initial evaluation to follow-up and long-term management when required. The focus remains on managing symptoms, supporting recovery where possible and maintaining overall health.
