Hi,

As you hadn't mentioned any causative factor for this pain like jogging or running we take it to be of idiopathic in nature. The most common cause for such pain is vitamin-D deficiency or early arthritis. Since as per your doctor you don't have any features of arthritis in your X-ray, so we are left with vitamin d deficiency alone. All you need to do is to take vitamin-D supplementation along with calcium for a period of 6 weeks after confirming the diagnosis with vitamin-D estimation.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Rohan Shanker Tiwari, Orthopedic Surgeon
