Hi thanks for asking question.
By alcoholic drinking you could have fatty liver or any other hepatitis or chronic liver disease.So rule out it...As secondary vitamin d deficiency can occur.If present treated accordingly.
Do you have diabetes ? Smoking history ?
As diabetic by neuropathy and smoking by vasculitis like condition can lead pain...
So rule it out.
Osteoarthritis , muscle strain, tendon injury has to be ruled out by local part x ray...
Take care.
