What kind of medication should a child with rickets take in everyday life?
Answer
Rickets is a condition caused by calcium malabsorption due to a lack of vitamin D, often presenting with symptoms like night crying, excessive sweating during sleep, irritability, bald spots on the head, pigeon chest, and skeletal deformities. It is advised to improve nutrition, expose to more sunlight, and maintain a varied diet. Vitamin AD drops, calcium gluconate, and foods rich in calcium such as pork bone soup, liver soup, and fish eggs can be consumed.
