Before the 18th century, scurvy plagued sailors on long voyages who relied on non-perishable foods like biscuits, salt beef and pork.
Now, modern money woes, along with bariatric weight loss surgery, are feared to be behind an increase in cases.
NHS admissions have risen in recent years after consistently sitting below 100 per year before 2014.
Provisional figures for 2022-23 show 171 were admitted with a primary or secondary diagnosis.
A poor diet, malnutrition, drinking too much alcohol, obesity and smoking are among factors that can increase risk of scurvy, which is caused by a vitamin C deficiency.
