Patient's question:

Eating evenly, prone to fever, it has been going on since the baby was born prematurely at 8 months. Don't know the reason for the previous treatment and...Doctor's answer:
In this case, there is a possibility of calcium deficiency. Suggestions: It is recommended to take oral calcium gluconate and Eke xin to see if it helps. Get more sun exposure and eat more bone soup, crucian carp soup, and lean meat. Children under 2 years old usually need 400–600 milligrams of calcium daily. According to a normal diet, children only get two-thirds of the required calcium from food, so they must supplement with calcium daily to make up for the missing one-third.Additionally, the human body has a series of adjustment mechanisms to regulate calcium intake. If calcium levels are sufficient, the intestines will absorb less calcium; if not, they will absorb more. Excess calcium is also excreted through urine and feces. Therefore, taking too much calcium orally will not cause poisoning, and parents can rest assured. However, vitamin D should not be overconsumed to avoid toxicity.
