Patient's question:
My child suffers from hypophosphatemic rickets. I would like to know if the second child would also get this disease if I have another child.Doctor's answer:
Low-phosphorus rickets is mainly caused by postnatal dietary factors and abnormal fetal development during the gestation period.Recommendations:
This type of disease is not hereditary. However, it is important to undergo more comprehensive prenatal examinations during the second pregnancy. After the child is born, special attention should be paid to supplementing trace elements in this area.
