I have gone through your query and understand your concern. Your pain may be related to vitamin and trace elements deficiency. You can take supplements of vitamins and trace elements. You can take analgesic such as ibuprofen for pain relief. You can get your vitamin D and vitamin B12 levels and if found low you can take its supplements. You can further investigate it by thyroid function test(T3,T4 and TSH) for thyroid disease and blood sugar for diabetes. You can discuss with your treating Doctor about it.Hope I have answered your query.If you have any further questions then don't hesitate to writing to us . I will be happy to help you.
