Question
My baby is showing signs of anemia, but the test results show no iron deficiency. How should it be treated?
Answer
Anemia has various causes, and it is recommended to visit a local hospital for a detailed examination to treat according to the specific cause of the anemia. In some cases, even if the baby has a mild iron deficiency anemia, the level of iron ions in the body may not be abnormal due to the body’s certain compensatory mechanisms. If iron deficiency anemia is suspected, it may be due to the baby’s rapid growth and development or insufficient nutrition intake. Therefore, it is important to strengthen nutritional supplementation, such as consuming iron-rich foods like liver, egg yolks, and animal blood, to help improve the anemia condition.
