Brief Answer:
your vit D & Vit-B12 levels are low
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thank you for query.
I saw the message. Your Vitamin D levels and Vitamin B12 levels are low.
Your heel pain could be because of vitamin D deficiency. You can take calcimax D once daily for 3 months and then check your vit D levels again. As Your Vitamin B 12 levels are very low, You need to consult a physician as soon as possible and get vitamin B12 injections or cyanocobalamine pills as per doctors advise. The lumps on your body could be lipoma,but get it examined by a physician.
Get back to me if any query.
Regards,
Dr VSK
