What is the situation when a child has a high forehead?

Patient's question:

My baby is now one year and three months old. However, for some reason, when I see him playing with other children, we can clearly notice that my son's forehead is much higher than that of most other children. Although his forehead is round and good-looking, it is too thin. It seemed impossible when he was just born, but it gradually became like this.
What kind of help is needed: Hello, what is the reason for my baby's high forehead?

Doctor's answer:

Most of the time, a baby's high forehead is normal, but it could also be due to calcium deficiency or other reasons. If parents are truly concerned, they can take the baby to the hospital for a check-up to see how the examination results are. It's recommended not to assume it's calcium deficiency just because it's said to be. Before the age of two, a baby's main diet consists of milk and complementary foods, so it's generally not easy to be calcium deficient.
