Calcium Metabolism Disorder
Calcium Metabolism Disorder Treatment in Mysore
Calcium Metabolism Disorder is a condition in which the body's ability to metabolize calcium properly is impaired. It can cause many symptoms, including brittle bones, low calcium levels in the blood, kidney stones, weak or brittle nails, muscle cramps, brittle teeth, depression, anxiety, and fatigue. There are many causes of calcium metabolism disorder, including certain medications, endocrine disorders, and certain genetic conditions. Treatment for calcium metabolism disorder typically involves lifestyle changes, such as increasing calcium intake and supplementing with vitamin D, as well as medications and other therapies.
Pre-procedure
These are the pre-procedural steps that are advised to be followed.
1. Perform a physical exam and obtain a complete medical history.
2. Order a blood test to measure calcium, phosphorus, and other relevant electrolytes.
3. If necessary, order imaging tests such as a CT scan or MRI to determine if there is a structural defect in the bones or organs related to calcium metabolism.
4. Refer the patient to an endocrinologist for further evaluation and treatment.
5. Prescribe medications to control calcium levels and supplement calcium if necessary. Book an appointment to have the best treatment.
6. Educate the patient about diet and lifestyle modifications to improve calcium metabolism.
7. Monitor the patient's progress and adjust treatment as needed.
Treatment
Treatment for calcium metabolism disorder depends on the type and severity of the disorder. In general, treatment may include medications, dietary changes, and lifestyle modifications.
Medications
Medications may be prescribed to treat calcium metabolism disorder. Commonly prescribed medications include calcium supplements, vitamin D supplements, diuretics, dihydrotachysterol (DHT), and calcitonin. Calcium supplements can help restore calcium levels in the body, while vitamin D supplements can help the body absorb calcium more efficiently. Diuretics can help reduce the amount of calcium in the urine, while DHT and calcitonin can help reduce the amount of calcium in the blood.
Dietary Changes
Dietary changes may be recommended to help improve calcium metabolism. These changes may include increasing the amount of calcium and vitamin D-rich foods in the diet, such as dairy products, dark green leafy vegetables, canned fish with bones, and fortified foods. Reducing the amount of caffeine, sodium, and phosphorous in the diet is also recommended.
Lifestyle Modifications
Lifestyle modifications can also help improve calcium metabolism. These modifications may include regular exercise, getting adequate rest and sleep, and avoiding smoking and alcohol.
Post-procedure
Post-procedure for Calcium Metabolism Disorder includes
1. Monitor for signs of hypo or hypercalcemia, including changes in heart rate, mental status, and/or electrolyte levels.
2. Monitor for symptoms of bone, muscle, and joint pain, as well as changes in skin condition.
3. Monitoring for kidney stones and/or kidney failure.
4. Evaluate for signs of vitamin D deficiency.
5. Refer to a dietitian to evaluate the patient’s diet and recommend calcium and vitamin D supplementation. Visit our endocrinology hospital in Mysore for the best treatment.
