Patient's question:
I took my son to the hospital last week for a thorough examination, and the results showed that he has rickets. It's all our fault as a couple, being too busy with training to take good care of him, which led to us not noticing his abnormal condition early on. Now his legs are severely deformed. What kind of help is needed: How should my son's rickets be treated?Doctor's answer:
First, it's important to understand that the key to treating rickets lies in digesting vitamin D, not just calcium (though calcium supplementation is also essential and absolutely necessary). Second, it's crucial to recognize that rickets comes in different stages, and different treatment plans should be adopted based on the severity. Additionally, how is calcium digested? Although calcium supplements are secondary factors, they are also indispensable. It's also recommended to seek treatment in large, reputable hospitals for greater safety.
