Patient's question:
I have been experiencing dizziness recently, and I can't eat properly either. My mental state isn't great either. When I went to the hospital for a check-up, they said it's a blood-related issue. Could you please tell me if anemia in a 3-month-old baby will worsen without treatment?Doctor's answer:
A three-month-old child with anemia needs further careful examination to confirm the cause of the anemia. If it is simply iron-deficiency anemia, it can be supplemented with iron-containing medications and high-iron formula. After the child starts complementary foods, pay attention to eating more foods rich in iron, such as egg yolks and iron-fortified rice porridge. If the anemia is caused by other reasons, it should be treated with caution. The mother can take iron supplements, such as ferrous fumarate granules and Fervitin oral liquid. Eat more iron-rich foods.
