The child has been experiencing leg cramps for the past 20 days, with a total of 6 or 7 episodes. Initially, the first two cramps occurred when the child made a mistake. After I scolded the child, the cramps may have started due to fear and anger.
Answer
Based on your description, the child’s condition may be due to calcium deficiency. It is recommended that you take the following two methods to supplement calcium: first, use calcium supplements; second, adjust the diet to increase calcium intake. The most common and traditional calcium-rich foods are dairy products, which not only contain abundant calcium but are also easy to absorb.
