Question

What is the cause of a baby having a soft waist and neck? What kind of diseases can be treated in pediatric surgery, and which symptoms belong to pediatric internal medicine?

Answer

It appears that a baby’s soft waist and neck might be due to calcium deficiency. It is recommended to undergo relevant checks to determine the specific condition and to supplement with vitamin D or calcium as needed. Fish liver oil can be taken orally, with a preventive dose of about 3-5 drops per day, and a treatment dose of 1000-5000 units per day. If the economic conditions permit, one can choose to supplement with products like eel calcium, Gai Zhong Gai oral liquid, or Jue Neng Calcium.
