Question

The baby is 2 months old and has larger areas on both sides of the top of the head, showing signs of cradle cap. How should the medication be administered daily? How should the timing of medication be managed? Could it cause diarrhea? Has there been any treatment? What kind of assistance are you hoping to receive?

Answer

Based on your description of the child’s condition, the baby is experiencing calcium and zinc deficiencies. It is recommended that you promptly take the child to a regular hospital pediatric department for examination and treatment. The child’s blood trace element levels have been checked, and medication can now be started. It is suggested to determine the dosage based on the child’s weight, taking half a dose each time, and completing the daily dose within 24 hours. Please closely monitor the child’s blood trace element levels to observe the recovery of calcium and zinc levels.
