Patient's question:
The baby is one year old and still cannot walk or stand steadily on their own. Is it possible that they are missing some trace elements? They also don't call for their mother. Could you please take a look at this situation and advise what they might need to supplement?Doctor's answer:
The height of a one-year-old boy is usually around 73.4-78.8 cm, and the weight is about 9.1-11.3 kg. However, children's growth and development vary, and these numbers are just for reference."If the baby is one year old and still cannot walk or stand steadily, it may be necessary to consider calcium deficiency, including the lack of other trace elements. You can take the baby for a hair trace element test to identify what is missing and address it promptly, which will be very beneficial.
"If the baby still cannot call 'Mommy,' it will be necessary for family members to encourage and guide the baby to express themselves. Every parent is the baby's first teacher, and with patience, the baby will quickly learn to communicate.
"Wishing the baby healthy growth under the love and care of the family!"
