A 14-month-old baby has developed O-shaped legs again, which is likely due to a deficiency of vitamin D in the body, leading to poor calcium absorption and subsequent bone changes associated with rickets. Rickets is a self-limiting disease, and the baby is currently in a remission phase, so it is important to promptly supplement vitamin D for treatment. In addition, it is crucial to maintain outdoor activities. O-shaped legs can cause severe harm to patients, so if symptoms are detected, medical attention should be sought promptly, and efforts should be made to strengthen self-care by consuming more vegetables and fruits while avoiding irritating foods. It is hoped that patients with O-shaped legs can receive professional treatment.
