Rickets refers to a nutritional disease characterized by bone lesions caused by disorders in calcium and phosphorus metabolism due to a deficiency of vitamin D in the body. The primary treatment for rickets involves early detection and comprehensive treatment at an early stage, which is crucial. The general treatment goal is to control the active phase, prevent deformities, and avoid recurrence. Nutritional rickets due to a deficiency of vitamin D is a self-limiting disease; it can be cured once infants and young children engage in sufficient outdoor activities and supplement with vitamin D. Early detection of low vitamin D levels or abnormalities in calcium and phosphorus metabolism, along with early proactive intervention, can prevent the occurrence of skeletal deformities. If sequelae are present, there is no need for medication; mild to moderate cases should strengthen physical exercise, and skeletal deformities can be corrected through active or passive rehabilitation movements. Severe skeletal deformities can be corrected through surgical treatment.
