I am a boy -29 years old, Since 3 weeks i m feeling pain in calf, heel and ankle in both the legs. The the pain is fluctuating within the heel, Ankle and calf Around two months back i had undertaken few tesst and the results are as follows; Uric acid - 7.4, Vitamin D - 42 and Vitamin B12 -478. Is this, due to dietary deficiency as I was out of India and I had mostly meat diet, whereas in India I m vegetarian.
