I am suffering from vitamin D deficiency, with a level of 8.83 ng/mL. I have been taking D3 Must 60K chewable tablets (1 tablet weekly) from Mankind Pharma and have taken 4 tablets over the past month. Is this safe? If not, what is the alternative and the proper dosage for my level of deficiency? If it is safe, how much longer should I continue this regimen, or should I adjust the frequency (for example, one tablet monthly)? I have attached my report for reference and would like guidance on the correct dosage based on my deficiency.

A weekly dose of D3 60,000 IU for 8 weeks is common for this level, followed by monthly maintenance. Your current dose is okay. Continue for 2 more months and retest.

I have been experiencing lower back pain. Last year, I had a similar type of pain, which was found to be due to vitamin deficiency and was successfully treated with medication. Now, the pain has suddenly started again. Please suggest what I should do.

I have pain in my hands and legs but no swelling. I think it is in my bones. My blood report, sugar, and BP are normal. Pain in my hands and CBP is also normal. What could be the cause?
