What Are The Symptoms Of Calcium Deficiency?
Hello Doctor, Morning. My son is 5 years old now. I have two questions. I have been giving him calcimax syrup not on a regular basis. His milk consumption is very poor as he experiences discomfort on drinking it. He is Ok with curds/yogurt but does not like cheese a lot. I need a good calcium supplement for him. second question - his teeth enamel has worn off. the front teeth are in bad shape and I see enamel loss on other teeth as well. is this due to calcium defeciency?

Hello
Thank you for trusting HCM.
This might not be due to calcium difficulty per se. for proper description of your sons problem please consult a pediatrician which in turn will ask for blood workup to figure out if values of your kid follow the normal expected values of such an age.
Other natural sources of calcium are green veggies, lettuce, rocolla.
Best regards,
Dr. Ahmad
