Patient's question:
After I learned to walk, I found out that I have bowlegs. I have been taking calcium supplements and vitamin D pills, but the effect is not obvious. Recently, I went to Dalian Children's Hospital and Shenyang Shengjing Hospital. I was diagnosed with hypophosphatemic vitamin D-resistant rickets.Doctor's answer:
Scoliosis is what we commonly call "calcium deficiency" in infants and young children, which requires surgery. The medication can be temporarily stopped during the surgery, but it still needs to be continued after the surgery because there is a possibility of recurrence of leg curvature. You can use 3D fish oil emulsion (for children) and calcium tablets for him, which serve a preventive effect.
