Understanding The Symptoms Of Turner Syndrome

Wide Neck

At least thirty percent of Turner syndrome patients will have a wide neck. Many doctors call this a webbed neck! This means that patients have extra skin folds that make it look webbed. This webbing starts at the sides of their neck and will reach their shoulders. Patients also have a hairline that reaches quite low on the back of their neck! A webbed neck does not directly cause a patient issues. However, the symptoms that appear with it do! Bone abnormalities cause skeletal structure problems. The appearance of the webbed neck also causes more psychological and self-esteem issues for affected patients.
