Question
After shedding the lanugo, the hair on the top and back of the child’s head is particularly fine, resembling fur. The hair that grows out is different from the rest, and when shaved, the back is blue and the top is white. What should be done? Will it also be like this when they grow up?
Answer
The child’s condition is due to calciphylaxis caused by a calcium deficiency, a common occurrence that does not require excessive worry. To promote the child’s healthy growth, it is recommended to provide calcium supplements such as Longmu Strong Bone Granules and Calcium Gluconate Oral Solution. At the same time, pay attention to dietary therapy and consume more calcium-rich foods like seafood. However, calcium supplementation should be a long-term process, and avoid supplementing too much at once to prevent digestive discomfort. As the child grows older, typically after the age of seven or eight, the hair will usually become normal. Wishing the child a healthy and happy growth.
