Are knee cracking sound and vitamin D deficiency correlated?

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

Hope this message finds you in good health. You are right. The cracking sounds that you hear in the joints are due to calcium and vitamin D deficiency. These sounds do not mean that bones rub against each other. It means that air bubbles burst inside the joint. These sounds will not cause any harm to your joints in the long run. Calcium-rich diet and vitamin D3 supplements of 60,000 IU tablets should be taken once in a week for two to three months. Calcium tablets also can be taken with vitamin D tablets. Consult your doctor, discuss with him or her, and take the medicine with consent. Yoga and meditation will help. Early morning sunlight before 8 AM should be taken on the skin for at least 20 minutes. This will not cause any cancer. Lower back pain can be detected by doing an MRI of the back. Back exercises will help.

Thank you.

Hi,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

Your calcium levels appear to be normal. So, no need to worry. There are no side effects of these medicines as they are just bone tonics. You can take them intermittently for your lifetime. You can take the supplements for two to three months and then discontinue them for a month and again restart. For your age, you can take the course for three months and then check for improvement. Ayurveda medicines are safe and good. But, do not take ayurveda and allopathy at the same time.

Thank you.
