What is the reason for the slight convexity of the baby's ribs near the abdomen?

Patient's question:

Baby is 5 months old. It was noticed that the ribs near the belly button on the chest are slightly protruding, not flat. Please ask the doctor what this condition is.

Doctor's answer:

Hello, this situation may be caused by calcium deficiency. It is recommended to wait and see. In addition to symptomatic treatment for pediatric endocrine diseases, patients need to consult experts more often and maintain communication with doctors. Patients should also pay attention to their diet, such as eating a light diet daily and exercising more outdoors. At the same time, patients should also pay attention to choosing a professional hospital for diagnosis and treatment, so that they can get a good therapeutic effect.
