Patient's question:
3-year-old and 4-and-a-half-month-old boy, height 97.5 cm, is it too short? Below is the health checkup report. The doctor said he was calcium-deficient and gave him D2 injections. He continued to take calcium, but it didn't work well after taking many calcium supplements. Later, he started taking Longmu Zhuanggu Granules, which felt okay. He took it for a long time, but some said the calcium content was too low, right? Would it be okay to switch to Diqiao or oyster carbonate effervescent tablets? And should vitamin D capsules be taken together? Why does this child like to eat his fingers in the past month?Doctor's answer:
According to your description, the child is calcium-deficient, with a height of 97.5 cm, indicating moderate to low growth and development. Within this range, it is recommended that you replace the calcium carbonate chewable tablets with vitamin D drops. In terms of diet, consume more calcium-rich foods such as milk, soy products, and seafood. Engage in more outdoor activities. The above advice is for the question "What should I do if a 3-year-old and 4-month-old boy with a height of 97.5 cm is said to be calcium-deficient?" It is hoped that this will be helpful to you. Wishing you good health!
