Patient's question:
My baby is 110 days old. Sometimes when I hold him, I feel a cracking sound in his bones. What could be the reason? Onset time: November 2009. Test results: None. Previous treatment history and effectiveness: None. Any assistance needed: I want to know what's happening.Doctor's answer:
During exercise, the sound of tendons and ligaments rubbing against the joints; for example, when the knee joint moves, the "crack" sound produced by the iliotibial band is medically referred to as "popping knee." This is a physiological phenomenon. Calcium supplementation, apart from the issue of absorption, is useless if not properly absorbed. At the same time, digesting AD (cod liver oil) can assist in calcium absorption and prevent rickets. Exposing oneself to sunlight also aids calcium absorption and it is essential to be outdoors rather than behind glass, as ultraviolet rays cannot penetrate glass. Additionally, an infant's immature gastrointestinal system can interfere with absorption. It is recommended to supplement calcium while also digesting probiotics such as Mimi Ai and Heshengyuan.
