Patient's question:
Bones are soft, don't know how to be good, what should I do. Please ask what are the early symptoms of rickets.Doctor's answer:
Early on, the main symptoms were irritability, restlessness, poor deep sleep, night terrors, night crying, and excessive sweating. Due to the sweat, the child often shook their head and rubbed the pillow while sleeping, leading to acne behind the head (). Besides conditions like bowed legs, pigeon chest, or square skull, rickets are primarily caused by calcium deficiency. It is recommended to ensure proper calcium absorption, use vitamin AD drops, and pay attention to more sun exposure during winter to enhance calcium metabolism. Rickets can significantly affect children, so parents are advised to take their child to a specialist for follow-up and treatment under medical guidance. In daily care, it is important to provide the child with enough attention and care, pay close attention to their diet, and hope for a speedy recovery!
