Question

What are the impacts on the body if my baby prefers to sleep on its stomach?

Answer

Considering the possibility of calcium deficiency, which may manifest as pain, excessive sweating, or twitching, a blood calcium test can help with diagnosis. Calcium supplements like Ge Zhong Gai can be effective, and increasing intake of calcium-rich foods such as fish and bone soup is recommended. Pay attention to rest and nutrition. For children with recurrent inguinal hernia, there is a possibility of bowel or testicle/ovary necrosis due to incarceration, and repeated incarceration can compress the spermatic vessels, which is not conducive to testicular development. The recommended age for surgery is 6 months or even earlier.
