Brief Answer:
Kindly upload Xray film. Take Calcium and Vitamin D supplements
Detailed Answer:
Hi there.
Welcome to Healthcare Magic.
Thanks for the query.
I have reviewed your reports but unable to view the pdf document as it is not opening. Your Doctor had suspected low bone quality or osteopenia. This could be a cause for the pain in that region of the foot 5th metatarsal Base.
It would be helpful to use a hard soled boot for walking. Eat food rich in Calcium and Vitamin D like eggs, chicken, lean meat, yoghurt, fresh fruits and green leafy vegetables.
Apply hot packs for relief from pain. Take Calcium supplements like Tablet Shelcal CT twice a day. Take Uprise D3 sachets one a week for 4 weeks.
Kindly upload your Xray film for me to be in a better position to help you.
I hope I have answered your query.
I will be available to answer your follow up queries.
