I have done an X ray and the report says lumbar spine straightening due to muscular spasm. I fell from my bicycle when I was 14 years old. Could this be the reason? My report is attached. Please help. My life is in trouble. Sometimes it feels like something is stiff and tight in my back.

Lumbar spine straightening is often due to paraspinal muscle spasm, which may stem from old injury, posture issues, or strain. Your past fall could be a contributing factor. Persistent tightness warrants physiotherapy, posture correction, and back strengthening exercises. If symptoms persist, further evaluation is advisable.

My blood test report shows a severe deficiency of Vitamin D3. Could you please advise which specialist I should consult for proper evaluation and treatment?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

In 2014 I had joint pain and doctor after seeing blood report said I have vitamin D problem. Treatment was done for 6 months. Later I was fine. Again now from one week my joints are paining and have swelling in ankle and feet which stays the whole day and increases in evening. Which doctor I need to consult?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

Hi Doctor, my father is 58 years old. His lab report shows severe vitamin D deficiency, with a reading of 9 ng per ml. He is not able to sleep, feels depressed, has negative thoughts, and feels very low. Please confirm if his depression and low mood could be caused by vitamin D deficiency?
