Patient's question:
Daughter is nine months old. Last time, the trace element test showed blood lead standards of 0-100, but her result was 275, which is quite high. She is a bit deficient in zinc. The baby eats very little and has recently become quite thin and slightly shorter. Hello, is this very serious? Can this condition be improved through dietary changes to lower the lead, or is medication required to remove the lead? What medication would be better?Doctor's answer:
Lead 275 is indeed a bit high. Common reasons include: 1. Contact with oil paint or paint, 2. Air pollution such as car exhaust fumes, 3. Eating puffed snacks. Pay attention to identifying the cause.Suggestions: In most cases like this, dietary changes can solve the problem. You can eat foods rich in Vitamin C. In addition, develop good habits. Wash your face frequently before and after meals, before and after using the restroom. Toys should be cleaned regularly to prevent contact with oil paint or car exhaust fumes. Eat fewer or no puffed snacks.
