Disorders of Calcium Metabolism

Disorders of calcium metabolism refer to conditions where the body has difficulty regulating calcium levels in the blood. Calcium plays a crucial role in various bodily functions, including bone health, muscle function, and nerve transmission. When calcium levels are too high or too low, it can lead to health problems.

Hypercalcemia is a condition characterized by high levels of calcium in the blood, which can be caused by factors such as overactive parathyroid glands, certain cancers, or excessive intake of calcium supplements.

Hypocalcaemia, on the other hand, is a condition characterized by low levels of calcium in the blood, which can be caused by factors such as vitamin D deficiency, kidney disease, or underactive parathyroid glands.
