How does scoliosis occur?

Patient's question:

How does scoliosis recur? Where can this disease be seen; a few days ago, I visited a friend's house and noticed their child was unwell. My friend said it was due to a metabolic disorder. This young child has experienced this condition again. Oh, how uncomfortable it must be. How does this disease generally develop, and how can it be identified?

Doctor's answer:

According to your description, it is usually caused by calcium deficiency. You can choose to take the child to a regular hospital for a follow-up visit in the pediatric orthopedics department as soon as possible, for a face-to-face examination. If necessary, ion tests may be required to assist in confirming the diagnosis and then provide symptomatic treatment. If a diagnosis is made, it is recommended to start calcium supplementation treatment as soon as possible to prevent missing the opportunity to treat the condition. In daily life, it is important to provide the child with a balanced diet, including more nutrient-rich foods such as meat, eggs, and dairy products.
