How can you tell the difference between joint pain vitamin deficiency and arthritis?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
By CRP and x-rays!: Few vitamin deficiencies cause joint pain. It is possible. You must first demostrate a vitamin deficiency, before thsi diagnosis is on the table. But the test for CRP (inflammation), and x-rays (joint degenerative disease) are also necessary. Jonit pain has many explanations. Vitamin deficiency is low on the list.
