Patient's question:
The baby keeps scratching their head, which feels a bit crazy because there are so many wounds on their head. They went to the hospital for a health check-up, and the doctor said the child is growing a bit too fast, suggesting they take liquid calcium. After taking liquid calcium for a while, the head-scratching hasn't improved, and they also experience excitement before bed every few days, with cold hands and feet and a thick layer of sweat. How can one deduce that the child is calcium-deficient? Did I give them too little calcium?Doctor's answer:
In this case, the baby might also be allergic to something, or it could be caused by calcium deficiency, or it might be a manifestation of ADHD. The more they scratch, the itchier it gets, and the more agitated they become, the more severe the itching. The key is to relax the baby's mood and pay attention to scalp care. You can apply some calamine lotion or aloe vera gel. At the same time, relax the baby's mood and avoid spicy and irritating foods.
