Question
My child has malnutrition, poor digestion, and doesn’t want to eat dinner. They have chicken breast and are thin. We suspect they have rickets due to endemic diseases. What treatment methods are available at the moment?
Answer
Rickets is commonly caused by a lack of Vitamin D, and if your little one is experiencing changes in their bones again, it’s even more crucial to start treating the Vitamin D deficiency. Natural foods contain relatively low levels of Vitamin D, which is primarily produced through skin exposure to sunlight. Therefore, on top of the symptomatic anti-inflammatory medication, it’s important to encourage your child to get plenty of sunlight outside. Children are at risk from rickets, so parents must take their child for immediate medical treatment and avoid self-medication to relieve symptoms. For parents, it’s essential to closely monitor any changes in your child’s condition and do everything possible to help them receive timely treatment for the disease.
