Is a hgb of 11.2 concerning for a boy who just turned 4? dr suggested iron vitamin but i still worry. thank you!

Not severe: As a pediatrician, I would not be overly concerned about a hemoglobin of 11+ unless the level is decreasing with time. Adding a quality multivitamin with iron and Vitamin D would be reassuring.
