Hypophosphatemia
Hypophosphatemia is a medical condition characterized by low levels of phosphate in the blood. Phosphate is an essential mineral that helps build bones and teeth, and it plays a crucial role in energy production and cellular functions. Symptoms of hypophosphatemia can include muscle weakness, bone pain, and fatigue. It can result from various factors, such as certain medical conditions, malnutrition, or certain medications. Treatment usually involves addressing the underlying cause and may include dietary changes or phosphate supplements to restore normal levels.
