Vitamin d deficiency
Hello doctor... I am 16 years old and ..
I am having a severe vitamin d deficiency of 8.8 ng/ml. It was detected when I had gone for a check up to an orthopedic for muscle spasms and joint aches. He gave me a prescription of cholecalciferol capsules of 60000 IU which is for 2 months. I just wanted to know if there is a certain diet i can follow and should i be concerned that this can lead to other diseases or this deficiency is due to some disease.

Pott's Disease : Spine TB
My brother in law has been diagnosed with spinal tb. He is bed ridden for last 2-3 months & can't move. He is taking 1st line of ATT drugs but no improvement can be seen. Spine surgeons at private hospital are recommending for surgery with metal rods as the MRI shows that the spine bones are melted & it cannot be recovered as per them. However, government doctor do not, they suggest removal of pus, continue with drugs & recommend genxpert test. We have consulted 2 private surgeons & they recommended for surgery, this is a very big decision to make. There is no sign of paralysis & sensation is definitely there in body but legs are getting weak.
Please suggest if we shall go for the surgery or not !!!

Knee Pains while sleeping
Knee pains when I lye down. I feel normal when I walk and standing. So consulted a general physician and he gave me vitamin tablets which is rich in omega. I had it for nearly a month. After stopping it again I'm having the pain. Can I get a permanent solution in natural way rather than having vitamin supplements ? (PS: I'm a Vegetarian)

Chronic pain-Rib muscles
I am experiencing a chronic pain in the lower part of my rib on back at left side especially between the 5 and 6 rib for around 6 months.
I had consulted a doctor who initially prescribed me anti gastric medicine but in vein. Some time later I consulted other Doctor and he took the x-Ray but report was fine.
But I feel the pain consistently and I can pin point the origin of pain
Sometimes it's radiating and inflammatory
Please advice.

My cousin met with accident and had a fracture in his right leg which was already affected by polio. He had a surgery for the same. It's been 4 months but still could not walk. Physiotherapist told that his leg muscle is not working properly. Is there any treatment which can help him walk like before? Can acupuncture helps in strengthening muscle? Please suggest..
