Patient's question:
My baby is already one year old. He is always afraid of falling and doesn't dare to walk by himself. What should I do?Doctor's answer:
Hello: According to your description, considering the baby's condition, it is likely that the baby is developmentally delayed, possibly due to poor brain development. It is recommended that you take the baby to the hospital for a check-up, where a head CT can be performed to assess the brain's development. The baby's condition requires rehabilitation training and treatment. Additionally, the baby should start taking calcium supplements from the full moon month and continue until the age of 2 or 3.There is also an issue of calcium absorption. Even if you take a lot of calcium, it will be useless if it is not absorbed. Simultaneously supplementing with AD (cod liver oil) can help with calcium absorption and prevent rickets. Exposing the baby to sunlight can also aid in calcium absorption. It is essential to be outdoors and not through a glass window, as ultraviolet rays cannot penetrate glass.
Furthermore, the baby's immature gastrointestinal system can also affect absorption. It is recommended to supplement with probiotics for the gut, such as Mimi Ai, while taking calcium. Wishing the baby a healthy growth.
