Patient's question:

Two-month-old babies' legs sometimes twitch, what is the reason?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, based on the clinical data you provided, it is likely that your child has a higher chance of calcium deficiency. Seizures are an early manifestation of vitamin D deficiency rickets caused by calcium deficiency. It is also important to rule out infantile spasms.
Advice: It is recommended to supplement with vitamin AD (concentrated cod liver oil drops) under the guidance of a local pediatrician to promote calcium absorption, supplement with calcium (such as calcium gluconate oral solution), and get adequate sun exposure to promote the synthesis of endogenous vitamin D3. This should improve quickly. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask.
