Question
There are several indents on the head, as if something had been pulled over it. Past treatment and results: None. Needed help: What could be the cause, is it a calcium deficiency?
Answer
Calcium supplementation for children should primarily be through food. If calcium supplements are necessary, they should be chosen with caution. Since children have weaker gastrointestinal functions, it is not recommended to use calcium supplements with high carbon content, such as calcium carbonate or active calcium; nor should carbonated drinks or sodas be consumed while taking calcium supplements, as this can interfere with the absorption and utilization of calcium. Additionally, according to expert experiments, excessive intake of calcium preparations can inhibit the absorption of zinc, so for children with zinc deficiency, food supplementation should be prioritized during calcium supplementation.
