Patient's question:
My son is now three and a half years old. Recently, he has been crying a lot at night. He also says his legs hurt and has cracked lips. He hasn't been eating well lately. He has been getting sick quite often and his speech is also unclear.Treatment history and effectiveness: He has not been to the hospital for check-ups.
What kind of help do you need: Could you please tell me if the child is lacking something in his body?
Doctor's answer:
The child may be lacking in calcium and other trace elements. The baby should follow a regular dietary routine, eat small meals frequently, and consume foods rich in vitamins, which can help improve the child's symptoms. Increase the intake of calcium-rich foods for the child, such as bone soup, etc. For a child in this condition, it is best to take them to the hospital for a trace element check as soon as possible and actively receive treatment. It is also a good idea to encourage the child to be more active and get some sun to supplement trace elements.
