For that you might need to get a physical examination done by your nearest orthopaedic surgeon. Also precise clinical history is helpful to get an idea about the back pain, like : 1. When it started ? 2. Radiation of pain or numbness to either leg? 3. Pain in flexion or in extension ?? 4. If pain subsides after walking or moving around? 5.

ideally should get vit d3 levels tested first instead of directly jumping to treatment. toxicity of vit d is also reported. usually the dose is once a wk for 6-8 wks followed by once a month
