How should rickets be treated? What kind of diseases can pediatric surgery handle, and which symptoms are considered pediatric internal medicine cases?
Answers
Rickets is primarily caused by calcium malabsorption due to a lack of vitamin D. Therefore, the focus of treatment is to supplement calcium and vitamin D. In daily diet, therapeutic foods can be used to promote the absorption of calcium and vitamin D, providing children with a nutritionally balanced diet rich in protein. At the same time, taking children outdoors to bask in the sun helps promote the production of vitamin D.
