Question
A parent asks, how should a 7-year-old child with rickets be treated? The child has had rickets since childhood and now needs crutches to walk, and their health is not good.
Answer
Based on the described situation, your child may have rickets. It is recommended to supplement your child with calcium carbonate (as a method of calcium supplementation), take them outdoors to get plenty of sunlight, cultivate good eating habits, and consume more calcium-rich foods. Since the child is troubled by rickets, parents should take their child to a doctor for treatment promptly, avoid falling into trap , and receive timely symptomatic treatment. It is very important for parents to provide enough care and attention to their children and do their best to help them receive timely treatment for the disease.
