Patient's question:
What kinds of diseases can pediatric surgery treat, and which symptoms belong to pediatric internal medicine? What are the ways to relieve pediatric rickets?Doctor's answer:
The cause of rickets in children is primarily due to long-term malnutrition, specifically insufficient vitamin D supplementation in their daily diet, which prevents the absorption of enough calcium during their growth period. If symptoms of rickets appear, this condition must be treated early, as otherwise, it may lead to discomforting symptoms such as chest deformities and breathing difficulties. It is recommended that you consult a doctor to prescribe medications that supplement calcium and vitamin D for targeted treatment. Additionally, it is advisable to take your child out for more sun exposure regularly.
