The heel is the main support point for human activities. Due to a lot of walking, a large number of skin calluses will be deposited on the heel. Regular exfoliation and foot scrubbing are required to keep the feet smooth and tender. When they are young, many children do not have a clear understanding of foot skin and are prone to foot skin disease. At this time, many parents are worried. What disease causes children's foot skin disease? I suggest you go to the hospital for a checkup to see if you have a lack of trace elements. Trace element inspection items Generally speaking, trace elements mainly check the levels of calcium, iron, zinc, copper, magnesium and blood lead. When parents get their baby's trace element test report, they usually pay more attention to two sets of data. One group is the content of certain trace elements in the child's body, and the other group is whether these trace elements are within the normal reference value range. In fact, parents should not only pay attention to whether the baby's test values are within the normal range, but also pay attention to whether they are in the middle of the normal range. Only in this way can they clearly understand the baby's needs and the child can grow better and faster. 1. Calcium It makes up 1% of your blood but 99% of your bones. When the body lacks calcium, the blood absorbs calcium from the bones to maintain a balanced calcium concentration in the blood. Therefore, when parents see that the calcium content in their baby's blood is at the standard level, it does not mean that the baby is not calcium deficient. Parents also need to pay more attention to whether their baby has symptoms such as irritability, night terrors, and excessive sweating. In addition, parents need to note that while testing the calcium content in their children, they also need to check other indicators such as bone density, alkaline phosphatase and 25-hydroxyvitamin D to comprehensively determine whether their children are calcium deficient. 2. Iron When babies reach the critical period of growth and development, they need sufficient iron to produce blood and transport oxygen. Once the iron content in the body is lower than the middle of the normal value, the baby may have symptoms such as poor complexion, fatigue, dizziness, loss of appetite, and inability to concentrate highly, especially between six months and two years old. Parents should note that before the baby develops anemia, the body's multiple body functions have already been affected by iron deficiency. 3. Zinc The zinc value is also worthy of parents' attention. Lack of zinc can cause zinc deficiency, but excessive absorption can cause zinc poisoning. At the same time, zinc also has a certain impact on the metabolism of nucleic acids, proteins, sugars and bone calcium. In addition, zinc plays a vital role in the baby's physical development, the repair of various tissues and maintaining normal taste. Therefore, the zinc content in the baby's body must be maintained above the middle of the normal range to ensure the baby's healthy and strong growth. 4. Copper Too much monotony in food is the main cause of copper deficiency in the body, so we should pay attention to the diversity of food to prevent copper deficiency in the body. However, parents should also pay attention to controlling the copper content in the baby's body. If the value exceeds the normal range, it will also interfere with the baby's absorption of other elements such as calcium and iron. So, just stay in the middle of the normal values. 5. Lead Lead can damage the human nervous system, making babies prone to temper tantrums, irritability, and inability to concentrate. It can also affect the baby's bone development and hematopoiesis, and even have a negative impact on the baby's kidneys and heart, and interfere with the baby's intellectual development. Generally speaking, the younger the baby, the less lead his body should contain. Parents should note that the normal lead test value for young children is best below 50ug/L. |
