Question
The baby is 19 months old and weighs only 19 pounds. He cannot walk, feels weak in the legs, and has thin hair. The previous Diquan calcium supplement has not been effective. The inquiry is about other recommended calcium supplements. Additionally, it is asked if a baby of this age can take Tian Shi as a calcium supplement.
Answer
Hello, based on the baby’s symptoms, it may be due to a calcium deficiency. It is recommended to administer calcium gluconate oral solution or Gaitianli for treatment, and pay attention to consuming foods rich in calcium. At the same time, more practice in standing and walking should be encouraged. Pediatric health issues often trouble parents, and general treatment methods should be considered during treatment. Parents should use regular methods to help children treat diseases to avoid affecting their growth and development. Therefore, parents should closely monitor their child’s condition and seek medical treatment in a timely manner.
