The term 'prevalence' of Osteomalacia usually refers to the estimated population of people who are managing Osteomalacia at any given time. The term 'incidence' of Osteomalacia refers to the annual diagnosis rate, or the number of new cases of Osteomalacia diagnosed each year. Hence, these two statistics types can differ: a short-lived disease like flu can have high annual incidence but low prevalence, but a life-long disease like diabetes has a low annual incidence but high prevalence.

Go To Main Page Alternate Names : Osteomalacia in Children, Renal Rickets, Vitamin D Deficiency Definition Rickets is a childhood disorder involving softening and weakening of the bones, primarily caused by lack of vitamin D , calcium, and/or phosphate. X-Ray Vitamin D may be absorbed from food by the intestines or may be produced by the skin when the skin is exposed to sunlight. In its active form, vitamin D acts as a hormone to regulate calcium absorption from the intestine and to regulate levels of calcium and phosphate in the bones. Sunlight is important to skin production of vitamin D, and environmental conditions where sunlight exposure is limited may reduce this source of vitamin D. Lack of vitamin D production by the skin may occur with indoor confinement or working indoors during the daylight hours, or in climates with little exposure to sunlight.

Support Organizations Osteomalacia Osteomalacia is a condition in which the bones become soft. The cause of osteomalacia is not getting enough vitamin D (vitamin D deficiency). A deficiency in vitamin D leads to the loss of calcium and phosphorus, both of which are necessary for making bones hard and strong. A vitamin D deficiency leading to osteomalacia may be caused by a poor diet (malnutrition) or by a problem with the intestine (such as sprue) that prevents it from absorbing nutrients. Symptoms of osteomalacia include weakness, lack of appetite, weight loss, pain, and bones that fracture easily. Depending on the cause of the condition, treatment may include taking oral supplements of vitamin D, calcium, and phosphorus.
