Question
I had rickets as a child, now I’m grown up, and my brain is always painful. How should I treat rickets?
Answer
Hello, rickets are primarily caused by a lack of vitamin D. It is recommended to supplement with vitamin D. In mild cases, you can take cod liver oil and calcium supplements such as calcium gluconate; in severe cases, intramuscular injections of vitamin D3 may be necessary. If the child’s condition is severe, intramuscular treatment can be considered.
Precautions: Maintain a balanced diet, engage in appropriate outdoor activities to get sunlight, and supplement with calcium and vitamin D.
