In short
Child abuse involves doing or failing to do something that results in harm to a child or puts a child at risk of harm, and it can be physical, sexual, emotional, or take the form of neglect. Most abused children suffer greater emotional than physical damage, which can lead to depression, withdrawal, thoughts of suicide, or violence. Older children who are abused may use drugs or alcohol, run away, or abuse others.

Description
Child abuse is doing something or failing to do something that results in harm to a
child or puts a child at risk of harm. Child abuse can be physical, sexual or emotional. Neglect, or not providing for a child's needs, is also a
form of abuse.
Most abused children suffer greater emotional than physical damage. An abused child may
become depressed. He or she may withdraw, think of suicide or become violent. An older
child may use drugs or alcohol, try to run away or abuse others.
Child abuse is a serious problem. If you suspect a child is being abused or neglected,
call the police or your local child welfare agency.

About this page. This page brings together public information from official sources, each cited where it is used. It is not medical advice, it is not a diagnosis, and it does not tell you which treatment to take.
Treatments. Indications are quoted unchanged from official product information (European Medicines Agency, U.S. Food and Drug Administration). They describe what a medicine is approved for, not whether it is right for you. Approved uses can differ between countries. Always read the package leaflet and follow your doctor's or pharmacist's advice.
What people report. Figures marked "reported by Anpheros users" are anonymous counts from at least 20 people who agreed to share them. They show what people report, not what works, and they are not clinical evidence.
Links between terms. "May be associated with" means the link appears in a cited source. It does not mean you have that condition.
In an emergency, call 112 (or your local emergency number). Do not delay seeking medical help because of something you read here.
