How is early infantile rickets treated?

Patient's question:

My child is likely suffering from rickets. It is said that rickets are mainly caused by a lack of vitamin D in the child's body. I would like to understand how to treat rickets in infants in the early stages.

Doctor's answer:

Rickets, also known as vitamin D deficiency, is more common in infants. The main cause is a lack of vitamin D in the body, which is a bone matrix fibrosis disorder that can lead to calcium and phosphorus metabolic disorders in the body, causing poor bone fibrosis. If infants and young children suffer from rickets, their immunity will decrease, making them more susceptible to secondary neuron pneumonia, nausea, vomiting, and other diseases that interfere with children's growth and development. The importance of actively and comprehensively preventing and treating rickets is particularly prominent.
