Question

My child is two years old and has a slight limp when walking. The doctor said it’s rickets. I just want to know how serious is it, please tell me what should rickets patients do?

Answer

This might be due to the child lacking calcium and vitamin D, leading to developmental delay. It’s best to take the child to the hospital for a check-up on trace elements! Or you can give the child some calcium or vitamin D drops. Once the child doesn’t lack calcium anymore, that’s good enough! Parents must take their children for timely medical treatment, prevent the blind use of small advertisements for medication, and require appropriate medication. For parents, it’s important to keep a close eye on their child’s condition and do everything possible to help the child receive timely treatment for the disease.
