Patient's question:
What kinds of diseases can pediatric surgery treat, and which symptoms belong to pediatric internal medicine? Please tell me which department to go to for rickets in children.Doctor's answer:
Based on the situation you described above, if you suspect your baby has rickets, it is recommended that you consult a pediatrician for a thorough examination. The symptoms of rickets typically include excessive sweating, easily waking up, and shaking their head while taking a nap. In severe cases, it may lead to conditions such as bowed legs or pigeon chest. You can take your baby to a regular hospital's pediatric department for examination. Generally, bone density tests or X-rays are performed to make a diagnosis. I hope this information is helpful to you.
