Question
My child is one year and two months old and has been weaned for half a month. Since then, the child has started crying at night, unable to sleep soundly. During the day, the child is very well-behaved, eating, playing, and sleeping are all fine. The child has been taking Yianfan bone capsules for over a month now, and I’m wondering if this crying could be caused by calcium deficiency.
Answer
Crying in a one-year-old after weaning might not necessarily be due to calcium deficiency. It could be a reaction to the change in diet, which usually improves with time. You can continue with Yianfan. If you are worried about calcium deficiency, it’s advisable to have the child checked for trace elements at a hospital for peace of mind. Yianfan is primarily used for conditions like osteoporosis, renal osteodystrophy, and nutritional metabolism disorders. Wishing you and your child a speedy recovery and a healthy body with a beautiful life.
