Patient's question:
She contracted rickets at a young age, and now she must use a cane to walk. Her health is not good now. Can rickets be cured without surgery?Doctor's answer:
Rickets, also known as calcium deficiency, is relatively common in infancy. It is a disease that causes abnormal fibrosis of the bones due to the disruption of calcium and phosphorus metabolism in the body, which is brought on by a lack of vitamin D. For the treatment of moderate to severe rickets, vitamin D3 must be chosen as cholecalciferol emulsion. This is a vitamin D3 emulsion containing 300,000 IU of vitamin D3, with the same content as traditional vitamin D3 injections.Usage and dosage: Pour the cholecalciferol emulsion into a sufficient amount (3-5 times) of warm water, milk, or soy milk and take it orally. Rickets can be very harmful to children. Once a mother notices the symptoms in her child, she should take the child to a regular hospital for diagnosis in a timely manner. At the same time, she should pay close attention to the child's dietary issues and recommend a more light diet.
