U have Vit D Deficiency.Along with sunlight exposure u need proper DOASGE of vit D supplements and Diet rich in Vit D.

Hi, main source of vitamin d is the sunlight. We should expose in the morning and evening sun light. In some people, there will be reduced production of vit.d even after exposure to sunlight. Vitamin d supplement will take 4-6 mnths to increase the vit d levels in ur body. Also, u have to take a  proper diet with medication inorder to get a desired effect.
