Answer
Vitamin D rickets is a genetically inherited disease caused by a gene mutation on the X chromosome. Clinically, it presents with increased urinary phosphorus, delayed growth, and issues with weight-bearing in the lower limbs.

It is suggested to seek medical attention promptly, take symptomatic medication based on the condition, and cooperate with the doctor for treatment.
