What Cause Funny Feeling Like Hand Really Small In 8 Year Old?

my son is 8 and saying that he is having some funny feeling in his arms and hands, like they feel really small. Then he is also having these thoughts go through his mind at bedtime. Is it something to have a concern over or is it just growing activities?

Hi...Thank you for consulting in Health Care magic.
If his hands and arms are not really small and really you are certain that without any abnormality he is having this feeling, I suggest you talk to him at length and stress on the fact that he should not compare like that with his peers (If he is doing so). The other option is taking the help of a child psychologist.
Hope my answer was helpful for you. I am happy to help any time. Further clarifications and consultations on Health care magic are welcome. If you do not have any clarifications, you can close the discussion and rate the answer. Wish your kid good health.
