Hypokalemia is very common in clinical settings, generally caused by improper diet, insufficient supplementation, or excessive loss. It is recommended that patients first seek further examination at a hospital. If potassium deficiency is confirmed, mild cases can be treated with oral potassium supplements, while moderate to severe cases who experience muscle weakness, flaccid paralysis, and arrhythmias should receive intravenous potassium supplementation in conjunction with oral treatment. It is also important to dynamically monitor electrolyte levels. In daily life, it is important to plan a diet that is rich in vitamins and trace elements, and treat the specific causes of the condition. It is recommended that patients continually monitor their fluid and electrolyte balance, abstain from smoking and limit alcohol consumption, and maintain good daily habits.
