Question
My child is around 5 years old and has been complaining of leg pain recently. I don’t know what’s going on. How can I check if the baby is deficient in calcium and has low bone density?
Answer
Actually, both bone density tests and trace element tests can detect if the baby is deficient in calcium. Both types of tests are very good. If you want to know if your child has a calcium deficiency, you can take your child to the hospital for a check-up. If it turns out that your child is deficient in calcium, you need to supplement calcium for them promptly. You can give your child calcium and zinc supplements, grape calcium, and also make sure to give them fish liver oil. Additionally, it’s important to expose your child to sunlight more often, take them out to sunbathe, and ensure they drink plenty of water.
