Patient's question:
My son is three years old this year and has always been thin and small. A few days ago, he just learned to walk, and his body posture is not very good. The front ribs are a bit thin. A few days ago, I took him to the hospital for a thorough examination. The doctor said it was renal rickets with renal rickets. What does renal rickets with renal rickets mean?Doctor's answer:
Renal rickets is relatively common in infancy, possibly caused by vitamin D deficiency leading to calcium and phosphorus metabolic disorders in the body. It is advisable to let the child eat more calcium-rich foods, such as dairy products and kelp, as well as vitamin D-rich foods like liver to enhance calcium absorption. Encourage the child to eat fresh fruits and vegetables, and let them spend more time outdoors absorbing fresh air and sunlight.
