Doctor's answer:
Hello, your child's development is slow, which may be caused by zinc deficiency. Additionally, zinc deficiency mainly affects sexual development. I suggest you take your child to the hospital for a trace element test to check if they are deficient in zinc, and then determine the method and dosage of zinc supplementation. There are many reasons for respiratory problems in children. If your child is confirmed to have respiratory issues, parents need to cooperate with the doctor for timely treatment, cooperate with gastrointestinal decompression, and develop good hygiene habits. Your child needs a balanced diet and should avoid stimulating and cold foods.
