Hi doctor, I have been experiencing knee joint pain for the past six months. I feel pain mainly while running and climbing stairs. Initially, the pain was more severe, but it has now reduced, although there is still some discomfort. I consulted an orthopaedic specialist earlier and had an X ray done, which came back normal. He prescribed some pain relief medication, which helped reduce the pain. The issue started after I followed a strict healthy diet for two months. My recent blood report is also normal. Please suggest what I should do next.

Knee pain could be from low vitamin D or soft tissue strain. Xray being normal is a good sign. Since you have mentioned that the pain started after you started a healthy diet, one reason could be deficiency of essential nutrients, assessment of vitamin B12, folic acid and vitamin D might give a clear idea about the cause
Dr. Vasanthasree Suggests...
Take a 25-HYDROXY VITAMIN D (D2+D3) Test or Take a VITAMIN B12 AND FOLATE Test

View allHello sir, I am 18 years old and currently in class 12. For the past 7 to 8 months, I have been facing problems with my studies. I am not able to remember what I studied an hour ago, and the same happens with other events like remembering someone name or the path I have travelled. This makes me anxious. My family is very supportive but has an old thought pattern, so it was difficult to convince them to take me to a psychiatrist. Finally, I went to Patna AIIMS and had a consultation with a psychiatrist. The problem is that after taking the medicines, I experienced vomiting, restlessness, sweating, and loss of appetite. Without consulting the doctor, my parents forced me to stop the medicines. The medicines were 1) Sertraline Daxid 50 and 2) Etizolam 0.25 mg. Now I do not have trouble sleeping or eating, but I still have the problem of forgetting things. I am attaching my report. It is impossible to convince my parents again. Please suggest the best course. Shall I take the medicine.

Please suggest the report results. I always have brain fog and back head pain. While walking I feel like I may fall down and sudden movement of the head causes dizziness. Eye movement is also difficult.
