Patient's question:
Rickets is the most common nutritional deficiency in infants and young children. Please explain to me what rickets is.Doctor's answer:
Hello, you should get it treated. I got this disease when I was a child, and my mother didn't take care of me, which has led to regret now that it's too late. The earlier the treatment, the better! Rickets is the most common nutritional deficiency disease in infants and young children. The main cause of rickets is the lack of vitamin D in infants and young children, which leads to poor absorption of calcium and phosphorus in the intestines, preventing them from being deposited in the bones.
