What should be done if a three-month-old baby is calcium deficient?

Patient's question:

The baby is three months old and needs a thorough check-up. The doctor said she is deficient in calcium, but she has a hemangioma and cannot take fish oil. What should I do? Look at the doctor's handwriting clearly? Urgent reply needed, please!

Doctor's answer:

You mean there are capillary hemangiomas on the child's body, right? This can be treated with cod liver oil, as it contains rich amounts of vitamins A and D. Vitamin A in cod liver oil can promote the growth and development of the optic nerve and skin, while vitamin D can enhance the absorption and utilization of calcium. If there is a calcium deficiency, it is necessary to take calcium supplements along with vitamin AD simultaneously. This capillary hemangioma can be treated with vitamin AD preparations.
