Brief Answer:
Yes

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Though the reason for limb pains on exertions are many. Mineral and vitamin deficiency is common and calcium is commoner. So calcium intakes may help. However evidence based medicine suggests to test for calcium and Vit D3 before prescribing supplements.

Please see a doctor if you are unable to deal with it yourself.
Note: For further queries, consult a joint and bone specialist, an Orthopaedic surgeon. Book a Call now.
