Answer

Based on clinical diagnosis, the child may be showing early symptoms of vitamin D deficiency rickets, primarily due to calcium deficiency. It is recommended to supplement with vitamin AD and calcium preparations (such as calcium gluconate oral solution) under the guidance of a pediatrician, and to increase sun exposure to promote the generation of vitamin D3 in the body, which will help improve the symptoms.
