A level of 8 is very low. Take prescribed high dose Vitamin D 60,000 IU per week and increase sun exposure. Recheck levels in 6 to 8 weeks.

It has been 8 months since COVID recovery. I still feel pain in my knee joint, sometimes in the waist, hip joint, and joint vicinity while walking. I do mild exercise daily in the morning and walk 1 hour after dinner. My weight is 62 kg. I have had chest pain for 2 years and have done all cardiac-related tests. They were normal. Please suggest some solution.

Three years ago, I underwent a biopsy, and the report showed Lichen Planus Pigmentosus. Since then, dark patches on my skin have been increasing gradually. I would like guidance on what I should do now.

About 9 months ago, I was experiencing almost daily body pain, and tests revealed Vitamin D insufficiency. My doctor prescribed medication at that time, which helped significantly. Now, I am in a different state, and the pain is returning. It usually starts in one leg upon waking up and then spreads up that side of the body. What should I do to manage or diagnose this issue?
