Patient's question:
My baby noticed a rib deformity, and the check-up said it was rickets. What should I do if the doctor said two months ago that my baby had rickets?Doctor's answer:
In the case of the baby, malnutrition should still be considered. The most common issue in children is a lack of trace elements such as calcium, iron, and zinc. The baby still needs to enhance their nutrition. If the baby has iron deficiency anemia, it can be treated with oral medication while boosting their immunity. The key is to enhance nutrition and maintain a balanced diet, gradually improving their condition through dietary adjustments. There is no need to take oral qi-boosting liquid. Rickets can cause significant harm to children. If parents notice any symptoms in their child, they should take them to a regular hospital for diagnosis immediately. At the same time, they should pay close attention to their child's diet and recommend a lighter diet with less spicy food. We hope the child can receive appropriate treatment and recover quickly!
