Patient's question:
My baby is nine and a half months old and has been found to have a lead level of 22, which is above the normal range of 10 or less. Additionally, my baby is showing symptoms of rickets. What should I do? I urgently need help. At night, my baby often wakes up easily, sweats a lot, and doesn't sleep soundly. Their height and weight are also not meeting the standards. What should I do?Doctor's answer:
According to your description, the baby's blood lead level is not particularly high, as long as you pay attention to hand hygiene and environmental hygiene. Additionally, the baby's symptoms are mainly considered to be due to calcium deficiency, so it is important to digest vitamin D and calcium supplements, ensure adequate milk intake, and engage in regular outdoor activities and sun exposure time. The above suggestions are for the question "What should I do if my nine-month-old baby is found to have high lead content?" I hope it helps you, and wish you good health!
