Patient's question:
Recently, our company arranged for our employees to undergo health check-ups. The detailed results showed that one of our colleagues has hypocalcemia, but he was unaware of this condition. I would like to ask what hypocalcemia is and whether it has a significant impact on the body.Doctor's answer:
Chronic hypocalcemia should first be treated by addressing the underlying causes of low calcium levels, such as hypomagnesemia, vitamin D deficiency, malnutrition, etc. Calcium and vitamin D supplements can be taken orally (nutritional vitamin D or active vitamin D). Oral calcium supplements include calcium gluconate, calcium citrate, and calcium carbonate, which should be selected based on the specific condition of hypocalcemia. In daily life, it is important to maintain sufficient deep sleep, consume a moderate amount of fruits and vegetables, and reduce the body's immunity to ensure normal body functions.
