Patient's question:
My baby noticed a rib deformity, and the check-up revealed rickets. Could you please tell me how to treat rickets in children?Doctor's answer:
Rickets is mainly caused by a lack of vitamin D, so it's important to get more sunlight and supplement calcium to digest vitamin D. After a healthy check-up, the doctor will prescribe medication for you to take on time every day. After three months, the condition can usually be controlled. Rickets can be very harmful 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 care. It is recommended to follow a light diet and avoid spicy foods that may affect the condition. We hope the child can receive symptomatic treatment to help them recover!
