Question
The baby showed no abnormalities at birth, and now at seven months old, the left lower part of the chest can be felt to be prominently raised by touch, without any pain symptoms. Please let me know what this could be, and I would be very grateful!!!
Answer
It’s common to expose the baby to sunlight frequently, as sunlight can penetrate the skin to synthesize vitamin D in the body, which promotes calcium absorption. The role of supplementing vitamin D is to promote calcium absorption; simply supplementing calcium alone will not have an effect. It must be accompanied by vitamin D. The occurrence of pediatric orthopedic diseases can seriously affect patients’ health. In addition to symptomatic treatment, patients also need to pay attention to daily care. It’s important to eat more vegetables and fruits and consume more calcium-rich foods to reduce the risk of illness.
