Question
An 11-month-old baby has a sore left leg after weaning. The child has been crying a lot recently and not eating much. What could be the reason?
Answer
Your situation could be due to a calcium deficiency, and it is recommended to supplement with calcium. Yogurt is also a very good source of calcium, not only providing the mineral but also containing beneficial bacteria that can regulate intestinal function, making it suitable for various groups of people. It would be clinically necessary to test the baby’s trace elements. If diagnosed with a calcium deficiency, timely supplementation with Icodextrin (one tablet per day) and Sanjing Gluconate Calcium (one vial per day) can be effective, as Icodextrin can promote the absorption and utilization of the calcium supplement. In addition, when introducing new complementary foods, eating more eggs and dairy products is beneficial.
