Vitamin D level of 7 indicates severe deficiency. Can cause bone pain, backache, fatigue. Take 60,000 IU weekly vitamin D for 6 to 8 weeks (doctor guided). Get sunlight exposure (20 mins daily). Recheck levels after 2 months.

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?
