In 2014 I had joint pain and doctor after seeing blood report said I have vitamin D problem. Treatment was done for 6 months. Later I was fine. Again now from one week my joints are paining and have swelling in ankle and feet which stays the whole day and increases in evening. Which doctor I need to consult?

Recurrence of joint pain and swelling may point to a vitamin D deficiency or an inflammatory joint issue like arthritis. A rheumatologist or orthopedician would be the right specialist to consult.

Dr. Shaik Suggests...

Take a Vitamin D (1,25 Dihydroxy Cholecalciferol) Test or Take a RA Factor Test (Rheumatoid Factor) Test

Book Vitamin D (1,25 Dihydroxy Cholecalciferol) Test Book RA Factor Test (Rheumatoid Factor) Test
