When the blood calcium level decreases, it will lead to increased neuromuscular irritability, causing tetany, convulsions, delirium, etc.; when the blood calcium level is too high, it will cause neurological symptoms or muscle weakness. After calcium enters the blood, it can promote blood coagulation and increase the density of blood vessel walls to prevent white blood cells and serum from leaking out of the blood vessels.
