What are the physical symptoms of Prader-Willi Syndrome?

A person with the disease will have hypopigmentation (which is fair hair and skin compared to the rest of their family), small hands and/or feet, narrow hands with a straight ulnar border, speech articulation defects, eye abnormalities, thick saliva with some crusting at the corners of their mouth, almond shaped eyes, narrowing of the head at the temples, and obesity.
