Patient's question:
My baby is five months old. It has been more than half a month since it started wearing clothes. Previously, it was always wrapped in a small blanket. Children of the same age as my baby started wearing clothes before the New Year. Now, it can jump and hop on its legs. When I hold my baby under its armpits, it sometimes pushes up and down, but its feet are very weak. It often squats. I don’t know if this is because the baby lacks exercise or calcium. What kind of help should I provide: Is my baby calcium-deficient, or is it due to lack of exercise? Or is it rickets? I feel so sad. What should I do? Thank you.Doctor's answer:
Calcium deficiency, Calcium Gluconate Oral Liquid is a high-quality calcium supplement. 1. Intentionally arrange specific times to sunbathe every day. 2. Dietary calcium supplementation plan. Pay attention to consuming foods such as small shrimp shells, small fish, kelp, and vegetables like mustard greens and tofu. 3. Medication supplementation plan: Adjust the calcium supplementation dosage based on regular and careful monitoring.The above suggestions are for the question "Is the baby's soft feet due to calcium deficiency or rickets?" I hope it helps you. Wishing you good health!
