What should I do if a child's genitalia haven't fully closed?

Patient's question:

Okay, here is the translation following your instructions:
Okay, but the pubic symphysis hasn't fully closed yet, the ribs are slightly protruding outwards, and other intellectual and physical development are normal. Why hasn't it fully closed at 28? The doctor said it's due to calcium deficiency, and I've been taking calcium supplements, but it's not working. History of treatment and effectiveness: The local hospital performed a thorough examination, and bone density and other indicators were all normal. What kind of help is needed: Hello, is this normal? How could there be other diseases?

Doctor's answer:

I'm happy to explain your question. According to your description, the fontanelle of the 28-month-old baby not closing may be due to calcium deficiency, or it may be caused by poor calcium absorption after calcium supplementation. Pay attention to a balanced diet, expose the baby to sunlight more often to enhance calcium absorption, and carefully observe the baby's growth and development. Some babies may gradually close around 28 and a half months. The above is advice on the question "A 28-month-old child's genital area hasn't fully closed yet." I hope it helps you. Wishing you health!
