What is the cause of "buffalo hump" and " moon face" in patients with cushing's syndrome? |
why is the symptom of "buffalo hump" and "moon face".... These are symptoms of too much cortisol in the body. Those are the number one side effects of a steroid called Prednisone. Moon face is basically a puffy looking full face. A buffalo hump is like hunch-back. |
