What Is Williams Syndrome?
3. Symptoms
Patients with Williams syndrome are likely to born lighter than usual, and they are also likely to be born with poor muscle tone. They will also likely have some very noticeable physical characteristics, including being shorter than usual, and having a pinky finger that bends inwards.
The patient is also likely to have some very distinctive facial features. This includes having teeth that are spaced widely apart from each other, and full lips. An upturned nose is another common feature of the condition, and the patient is also likely to have a wider mouth than usual. These symptoms are often enough for a trained expert to recognize the condition.
