Can skeletal deformity rickets be cured?

Patient's question:

What kinds of diseases can pediatric surgery treat, and which symptoms belong to pediatric internal medicine? Can skeletal deformity and rickets be cured?

Doctor's answer:

If the bones become deformed, it is likely due to severe calcium deficiency, leading to rickets. If the symptoms appear, they may also affect joint movement or cause symptoms of joint pain. First, calcium and vitamin D should be supplemented. Correction of the deformed joints can primarily be achieved through surgery. In the later stages, coordinated rehabilitation exercises should be performed to improve joint function and achieve a complete recovery.
