Question 1

I have pain in my thighs. Twelve days ago I was hospitalized as COVID positive but after treatment my report turned negative and I was discharged. Now only my thighs are paining while the rest of the body feels fine. I do not have fever. Thank you.

Question 2

Hi, I am a 20 year old female recently diagnosed with a very low vitamin D level, my 25(OH) Vitamin D (total) result was less than 8.0 ng per mL, based on a blood test done around 4 months ago. I was advised to take Vitamin D3 60,000 IU once a week for 2 months. However, since I also have vitiligo and am currently undergoing depigmentation treatment, I strictly avoid sun exposure. I have heard that in such cases, a longer term vitamin D supplement may be necessary. Could you please guide me on how much vitamin D I should be taking daily in my situation? Also, should I be taking magnesium supplements alongside, and if so, in what dosage?

Question 3

Hello Doctor, My wife has been experiencing heel pain for several days. After a blood test, the doctor informed us that she has low iron and low hemoglobin, and prescribed protein and multivitamin tablets for iron deficiency. She also finds that when she gets up from a chair, she cannot put full weight on her foot, and the heel pain eases after a few steps. Could you please suggest any tablets or treatment for this heel pain?

I am in the IT profession and have been suffering from lower back pain for 2 years. I got a Vitamin D3 test done today and the result shows a level of 6.9 ng/ml. Does this mean I have a deficiency? If so, what are the risks and what are the ways to increase Vitamin D levels? Thanks.
