Abstract. This article investigates the impact of illness on children and its potential to cause delays in their physical development. Illnesses, whether acute or chronic, can disrupt the typical growth trajectories in children, affecting their physical health, motor skills, and overall well-being. This research explores the various factors that contribute to delayed physical development in children who have experienced illness and highlights the importance of early identification, intervention, and supportive care to mitigate the consequences of health challenges on their growth and development

Keywords: illness in children, delayed physical development, pediatric health, growth disruption, childhood diseases, motor skills delay, child health outcomes, developmental milestones, early intervention, pediatric healthcare
