You need to be evaluated if you actually have low calcium levels ( provide reports including total calcium, ionized calcium and serum albumin)
And then the cause needs to be analyzed which in our country is mostly dietary or vit D deficiency
Then accordingly supplementation plan to be given.
The IV injection that was given is short lived and will not be a permanent solution.
Kindly get evaluated for it.
