Question
My daughter is now 9 and a half years old, with a height of 140 centimeters. She had an X-ray bone age test done at the hospital, which showed a bone age of 12 weeks old. Should we consider medication intervention?
Answer
This might be related to trace elements and low calcium levels. It’s advisable to combine local medical blood tests for anemia and to check for calcium deficiency through trace element tests. Currently, strengthen nutrition through diet, and appropriately combine local doctor-recommended calcium supplements. Ensure a balanced diet and avoid fussy eating. Children have weaker immune systems, so they are more susceptible to pediatric general surgery issues. For parents, don’t rush; take your child to a specialized hospital for examination and treatment promptly. Also, pay attention to regular check-ups for the child and take medication as directed by the doctor.
