Brief Answer:
calcium

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thanks for the information.

Pain in the weight bearing bones or joints is usually due to low calcium in the bones.

I recommend to take Tab Shelcal 500 once in the morning after food for 2 months .

Also, do get your Vitamin D levels checked as low Vitamin D can cause defective bone mineralization and lead to such pains.

Please consult me back with Vitamin d test report.

Hope, I answered your query.

Wish you good health.
