Why does a three-month-old baby's bones make a cracking sound when held?

Patient's question:

When holding a three-month-old baby, sometimes their back makes a creaking sound, just like how our necks make a creaking sound when we move them! Is there anything wrong with the baby like this? I feel like it's the sound coming from somewhere in his spine. My husband often makes this sound when he's tired.

Doctor's answer:

Hello, baby, this situation is due to calcium deficiency. You can take Icicle Vitamin AD and Gailede Compound Calcium Carbonate Granules, which are quite effective. Calcium supplementation can prevent and treat rickets and its symptoms, such as bald spots on the head, irritability, night sweats, and sudden awakenings at night. This situation requires both calcium supplementation and vitamin D supplementation, as well as more sun exposure to promote calcium absorption and reduce the incidence rate.
