Hi,
Thanks for posting your query.
The cause of pain and tiredness in your hands and legs could be related to vit D3 deficiency or due to muscle spasm.
I suggest you to do stretching exercises to relieve the spasm and pain. Hot fomatation and applying muscle relaxant gel will help.
Take diet XXXXXXX in calcium and vit D. If the pain and tiredness persists, get your vit D3 level checked. If the levels are low, vit D3 supplementation should be started after prescription by your doctor.
Hope this will helps you. Let me know if you have any more concern.
Please accept my answer, if you do not have further query.
Wishing you good health.

Hi XXXXXXX
Thanks for writing again.
There are only few foods that are good source of vit D,so vit D supplements are often recommended unless you are exposed to sunlight on your skin regularly. The flesh of fatty fish and fish liver oils are among the best source.
To know the deficiency, you should go for blood test for vit D3 level. If deficiency occurs vit D3 supplements should be started after prescription by your doctor.
Hope this will helps you. Please write back if you have any more concern,
Wishing you healthy life.

Hi Doc,
I went to a Ortho on Saturday. On seeing me, Doctor told me,the pain is because of Stress & Anxiety. Its true that from 1-2 mnth i was stressed because of my GERD disease. But still afraid, is it because of this only?
He prescribed me 'neurica m 75 mg'. I asked him whether the pain is because of vit D3 deficiency,so he replied No. But he prescribed me 'Nu D3 60k ' vit tablet and asked me to come after 1 week.

Hi XXXXXXX

Pain could be due to anxiety and stress. But there is also possibility of vit D deficiency as a cause of pain. So it is good to get your vit d3 level checked. Be relax and try to reduce you stress and anxiety by doing some relaxation exercises.
Hope this will helps you.
