Patient's question:
Hello experts, my son is now over two years old. Last New Year's Eve, he caught a cold and saw a doctor. The doctor said he still had some chest deformity and needed to take calcium supplements. After taking them for a while, because my son has a weak immune system and has been catching colds, getting injections, and taking medicine, I stopped giving him calcium supplements. In the past few days, my son has probably gotten a rash. When he went to see a doctor, they discovered that his chest has already started to protrude. May I ask if taking calcium supplements now can still help correct it?Doctor's answer:
1. Baby chicken breast is related to vitamin D and calcium deficiency. It is recommended to check blood alkaline phosphatase activity or blood vitamin D levels, and provide treatment based on the test results.2. Babies with vitamin D deficiency also have poor immunity. It is recommended to take one bottle of Yingkangli, combined with calcium supplements such as Gaidexin or calcium gluconate.
3. If the baby's poor appetite is recent, it may be related to a viral infection. Pay attention to antiviral treatment first, and take medication to regulate gastrointestinal function.
4. Pay attention to chest expansion exercises. Strengthen the exercise of chest muscles.
