Earlier, bone pain was a problem of people above 50 years of age, but nowadays people at younger age have started complaining of bone pain, fatigue and weakness. There are many people who get calcium tested for this and there is no calcium deficiency in their body, but still the pain persists.

According to doctors, pain in bones A major reason for this is the deficiency of Vitamin D. This vitamin helps in the absorption of calcium in the body. If calcium is good in the body, but Vitamin D is low, then despite having calcium, the bones start becoming weak. Because due to lack of Vitamin D, calcium is not available in the body properly. According to doctors, if there is deficiency of Vitamin D in the body then some of its symptoms also start appearing.

What are the symptoms of Vitamin D deficiency in the body?

Regarding this, Dr. Akhilesh Yadav, Unit Head in the Orthopedic Department at Max Hospital, tells that if a person has continuous pain in bones and joints. If he gets tired quickly or feels heaviness in the back, these are also symptoms of Vitamin D deficiency. It is worth noting that not only Vitamin D but also Vitamin B12 and Magnesium deficiency causes pain in the bones.

Dr. Akhilesh says that till a few decades ago, the problem of bone pain was seen in people above 50 years of age, but now this problem is also seen in people of 30 to 40 years of age. A major reason for this is bad lifestyle. People have stopped going out in the sun. People stay in office from morning till evening and do not sunbathe even in the morning. People now avoid sunlight even though it is the biggest source of Vitamin D.
