Patient's question:
What kinds of diseases can pediatric surgery treat, and which symptoms belong to pediatric internal medicine? Is active rickets serious?Doctor's answer:
Your son has been diagnosed with active rickets, and a great deal of responsibility lies with you as parents. This condition occurs due to a deficiency of vitamin D in his body, leading to a chronic nutritional deficiency disease. Therefore, it is essential for you to appropriately balance his diet in daily life, ensuring he receives sufficient vitamin supplementation and adequate nutrition during his growth period. It is recommended that you first consult a doctor and use vitamin D and calcium supplements under their guidance for treatment. Additionally, it is important to expose him to sunlight more frequently in daily life.
