Why am I having dizziness with pain around the lower rib on both sides and under the arms for the past year?

This Premium Q&A, reviewed and published, features a real conversation between an iCliniq user and a physician.

Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I have been suffering from dizziness, bone pain around the lower rib on both sides, and pain under the arms for the past year. In addition, I feel lethargic and lack concentration. Also, I have taken allopathy and homeopathy medications for ear balance, but there has been no change.

Kindly help.

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

Thank you for your query.

I reviewed your query. Your symptoms are suggestive of vitamin deficiency. So I suggest you to follow a few instructions mentioned below.

  1. Take Calcium and Vitamin D3 supplements.
  2. Drink milk and eat milk products except for cheese.
  3. Drink plenty of liquids.
  4. Check for vitamin D3, B12, CBC (complete blood count), HbA1C (glycated hemoglobin), and serum electrolytes. Kindly consult a specialist, talk to them and take medications with their consent.

I hope this has helped you. Thank you.
