Patient's question:
What's wrong with the child? Why is he never quiet? He cries as soon as he wakes up. Even after changing his diaper, he still cries. Is it the same for every child? What should I do? Except for lying flat, he won't nap unless he's lying on his side with the nipple in his mouth. Then...Doctor's answer:
In this case, there is a possibility of calcium deficiency. Suggestions: When infants and young children lack calcium, the first symptoms appear in the soft skull, wide fontanelles, and a feeling like a ping-pong ball when pressing the skull. Later, the shape of the chest bones becomes abnormal, such as a protruding sternum resembling pigeon chest, or outwardly flipped lower ribs. If the lower limbs are soft, standing and bearing weight can lead to "O" legs or "X" legs. In addition to bone changes, early symptoms include excessive sweating at night, baldness on the back of the head forming, restless deep sleep and easy startles, and delayed tooth development. These symptoms are collectively referred to as vitamin D deficiency rickets. It is recommended to go to the hospital promptly for a detailed examination of trace elements and, after confirmation, to ensure adequate digestion.
