Vitamin D Injection And Supplements And Physiotherapy
My mum was suffering from low back pain just few days ago,after MRI and blood tests it was revealed that her lumbar region was flattening and vitamin d content was too low to measure (but calcium and phosphorus levels were moderate ),thus her doc put her into vitamin d injection and supplements and physiotherapy. My question is can she play badminton(or treadmill for 20 min at 4 km/hr everyday),drive car or scooter,drink beer(occasionally) during her medication.

Since her vitamin D levels are low, she should not do activities that strain her as she can injure herself by doing that. So for now, she should live away from badminton and treadmill exercises. Do talk to your orthopedician about it.
