Question
The baby’s larynx makes a sound, very soft, and after 4 weeks the sound resembles an adult’s snoring. Lately, the baby has been coughing occasionally after spilling milk. Could this be due to tracheitis? The baby has had diarrhea for 10 days. Is there a connection with tracheitis? What kind of assistance is needed?
Answer
How should it be treated? The situation could be due to tracheitis or softening of the trachea caused by calcium deficiency. It is recommended to undergo a blood test for confirmation. If calcium deficiency is confirmed, taking Icacin Vitamin AD drops and Gailide Compound Calcium Carbonate Granules can be effective. Calcium and Vitamin D supplementation must be done simultaneously, as Vitamin D is crucial for calcium absorption. Babies lacking sunlight exposure can consider taking supplements containing Vitamin D. Additionally, more exposure to sunlight, including outdoor activities and proper sunbathing, can help with calcium absorption.
