Patient's question:
The baby doesn't have long hair around the head. This has been going on for a while for the child. As parents, we are very concerned and hope the doctor can give some advice.Doctor's answer:
Hello: The condition of that child is indeed a symptom of calcium deficiency! The correct method for supplementing calcium is to first take vitamin D under the guidance of a doctor, usually orally at a daily dose of 5,000 to 10,000 units. For severe rickets or diarrhea patients, vitamin D injections can be used instead, while also taking calcium tablets orally, 0.5 grams each time, 1 to 3 times daily. This can meet the child's calcium deficiency while ensuring their safety.
