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

Dear Patient,

I'm sorry to hear that. Take one tablet chewcal every evening and take tablet Iberet folic once daily for as long as you nurse.
For your severe pain in hands consider seeing a rheumatologist.

For further consultation, you can choose from our list of best Rheumatologists in Rawalpindi and seek in-person advice.
