Patient's question:
I always feel that my child is not tall and is always listless. Later, I took the child for a thorough check-up, and the result said that it was rickets caused by a congenital lack of vitamin D. Can hypophosphatemic rickets be treated?Doctor's answer:
Low-phosphorus rickets, which is a type of skeletal fibrous dysplasia, is a condition that can currently be treated. However, the disease progresses slowly, making it easy to be overlooked. Delayed treatment can interfere with a child's growth and development. It is advisable to actively cooperate in digesting cod liver oil and calcium metabolism, and regular follow-up tests should be conducted to ensure effective treatment.
