Hi-wa itck

From WikiMD's Wellness Encyclopedia

Hi-wa itck is a medical term that refers to a condition characterized by high levels of calcium in the blood. This condition can be caused by various factors, including certain types of cancer, hyperparathyroidism, and excessive intake of vitamin D or calcium.

Causes[edit | edit source]

The most common cause of hi-wa itck is hyperparathyroidism, a condition in which the parathyroid glands produce too much parathyroid hormone. This hormone regulates the levels of calcium in the body.

Other causes of hi-wa itck include certain types of cancer, such as lung cancer and breast cancer, which can cause the body to produce too much calcium. Additionally, excessive intake of vitamin D or calcium can also lead to this condition.

Symptoms[edit | edit source]

The symptoms of hi-wa itck can vary depending on the severity of the condition. Some people may not experience any symptoms, while others may experience symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, constipation, confusion, and fatigue.

In severe cases, hi-wa itck can lead to serious complications, including kidney stones, kidney failure, and heart problems.

Treatment[edit | edit source]

The treatment for hi-wa itck depends on the underlying cause of the condition. For example, if the condition is caused by hyperparathyroidism, treatment may involve surgery to remove the overactive parathyroid glands.

If the condition is caused by cancer, treatment may involve chemotherapy, radiation therapy, or other cancer treatments. If the condition is caused by excessive intake of vitamin D or calcium, treatment may involve reducing the intake of these substances.
