Is rib flaring a typical symptom of calcium deficiency?

Patient's question:

Before the child was two and a half years old and was still young, the ribs were outwardly protruding, and they ate some calcium supplements. Is the outward protrusion of the ribs a typical symptom of calcium deficiency?

Doctor's answer:

Based on the symptoms you've described, it is likely that the discomfort is caused by rib flaring due to the baby's generally poor physical condition and calcium deficiency. Calcium gluconate oral solution can be used to prevent and treat calcium deficiency disorders, such as osteoporosis, tetany, incomplete bone development, rickets, and calcium absorption issues in children, early pregnant women, lactating women, postmenopausal women, and the elderly.
Cod liver oil, also known as vitamin AD drops, taken orally along with calcium gluconate primarily enhances the absorption of calcium.
If the baby is taking calcium gluconate oral solution, it is recommended to take it three times a day. Each dose should be one vial.
There are many different types of cod liver oil.
