Hello,
As I understand the history, you may have some vitamin D deficiency and due to this, you are having muscle weakness and joint pains.
Taking an oral supplement of vitamin D should help you get relief of these symptoms. But it will be better if you take sunbath along with medicine.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
