Mongolian spots
▪ are congenital birthmarks seen most commonly over the lumbosacral area.
▪ They are bluish-green to black in color and oval to irregular in shape.
▪ They are most commonly found in individuals of African or Asian ethnic background.
Lead poisoning
▪ Lead poisoning (plumbism) is often a comorbid condition to iron deficiency anemia. A child at
risk for lead exposure should be screened at 9 to 12 months of age and again at 24 months. An
estimated 99% of lead-poisoned children are identified through screening procedures rather
than clinical recognition. Additional screening should be done at 15 and 30 months of age based
on at-risk status
▪ If the initial blood lead level is 5 mcg/dL or greater on a single visit, it is a concern for public
health purposes.
▪ The United States has made great strides in reducing lead toxicity through the elimination of
tetraethyl leaded gasoline, banning lead-containing solder to seal food and beverage cans, and a
federal rule to limit the amount of lead allowed in paint intended for household use.
Headaches
▪ Avoid known dietary triggers
▪ Avoid aged cheeses, some nuts, onions, chocolate, aspartame, processed meats with nitrates
(e.g., hot dogs/pepperoni), monosodium glutamate (MSG), refined sugar, processed
carbohydrates; limit caffeine, avoid foods high in omega-6 fatty acids; ensure adequate
hydration. Increase omega-3 fatty acids (wild salmon, herring, mackerel, cod, sardines; fish oil;
flax and hemp seeds; walnuts; algae).
