What should I do if the baby keeps shaking his head?

Patient's question:

At 2 and a half months, it was noticed that there was some head shaking. Now at 5 months, the head shaking has worsened.

Doctor's answer:

Your condition may be caused by a calcium deficiency. It is recommended to supplement with calcium, which can be done in two ways: through calcium supplements and dietary calcium. The most common and traditional calcium-rich foods are dairy products, which not only contain abundant calcium but are also easily absorbed. Dairy products are also rich in minerals and vitamins, including vitamin D, which can promote calcium absorption and utilization. Yogurt is another excellent calcium-rich food. It not only provides calcium but also contains beneficial bacteria that can regulate intestinal function, making it suitable for all age groups. For those who dislike milk or are lactose intolerant, alternative foods such as oysters, nori, cabbage, cauliflower, Chinese cabbage, daikon, kale, and spinach can be consumed in greater quantities.
