Question
My 16-month-old child has a square skull issue, and the doctor suggested taking vitamin D3. However, the situation hasn’t improved after taking it. Are there any other better solutions?
Answer
This situation may be related to calcium deficiency. It is recommended to increase the intake of vitamin A&D and encourage outdoor activities for the child, allowing them to get more sunlight, which helps the body absorb calcium. Additionally, if the child is unwilling to take medication directly, larger doses of vitamin D3 can be considered, but this would require further examination and assessment by a doctor.
