Patient's question:
51-year-old male's mental state has not been very good recently, and I don't know why. Please ask: early symptoms of rickets and treatment suggestionsDoctor's answer:
Due to the rapid growth and development of children, their metabolism is more active than that of adults, resulting in the production of more heat and decomposition metabolites. At the same time, the development of the autonomic nervous system in children is not yet mature. During sleep, the sympathetic nerves that control sweat glands may become temporarily excited due to the loss of brain control, leading to excessive sweating, which is completely normal. In addition to night sweats, symptoms such as restlessness, poor deep sleep, easy waking, flat skull, baldness at the back of the head, and pigeon chest may also occur. If these symptoms are present, it is recommended to take sufficient digestive vitamin D and calcium supplements under the guidance of a doctor. It is also important to consume foods rich in calcium, such as fish and shrimp shells, during meals.
