Question
I had rickets as a child, but now I’m grown up and still have constant headaches.
Answer
Hello, childhood rickets is mainly caused by a deficiency of vitamin D. Mild cases can be treated with cod liver oil and calcium supplements such as calcium gluconate; severe cases may require intramuscular injections of vitamin D3. It is advisable to maintain a balanced diet, engage in moderate outdoor activities to get sunlight, and supplement with calcium and vitamin D.
