My wife has been experiencing burning sensations in her feet. On investigation, we found that her Vitamin B12 and Vitamin D levels are low. She is a pure vegetarian and does not consume eggs. Could these vitamin deficiencies be the cause of her problem? I am attaching the report for your review.

Burning feet can be due to low Vitamin B12 and Vitamin D. These deficiencies affect nerve health. Supplements are usually needed. Recheck levels after a few weeks.

My skin is oily and sensitive, and I have been facing this problem for the last 5 to 6 years. I get a lot of acne on my forehead, and my face looks very dull. Day by day, my skin tone is also becoming darker. My LFT, KFT, and thyroid reports are all normal. Please suggest what I can do.

I have vitamin B12 deficiency and my blood report says I have only 35 pg per ml of vitamin B12. I am taking Rejunuron injection once every two days and Neurobion Forte tablet for 10 days and D3 Must tablet once a week. I feel heavy headed sometimes and I feel like something is going on in my head. I cannot bear many noises and I cannot concentrate on one thing for too long. Why is this happening?
