Vitamin D Deficiency

Asked for Female, 28 years

I am a mother of a one-year-old. Since last week prior to my delivery, I began to feel an unusual pain in my finger joints (metacarpals), especially in the morning. After a few months, I tested my vitamin d, which came out to be very low(11). I've taken Indrop injections for 3 months and surbex z for a month. My vitamin d is now at 28 (atleast better than before) but the pain is still there. Kindly suggest a solution. Ps. I actively nursing and I am not taking any supplements
