Electrolyte Imbalance Treatment

Electrolyte imbalance occurs when the levels of essential minerals in the body, like sodium, potassium, and calcium, are too high or low. This can lead to symptoms like muscle cramps, irregular heartbeat, and fatigue. Treatment usually involves correcting the imbalance through dietary changes, oral rehydration solutions, or intravenous fluids. Doctors may recommend specific foods or supplements to restore proper levels. In some cases, medications might be prescribed to address the underlying cause. Monitoring is important to prevent future imbalances and ensure the body functions properly.
