Patient's question:
My wife has been complaining about shoulder pain recently, and sometimes when she turns around, you can hear the sound of bones rubbing together. Is this a symptom of calcium deficiency? So, I would like to ask the doctor, is shoulder pain and bone rubbing sounds during menopause a sign of calcium deficiency? Should she take calcium supplements?Doctor's answer:
The condition you mentioned is caused by calcium deficiency. It is important to supplement calcium promptly. You can take calcium tablets orally. In your daily diet, you should also consume more fruits, vegetables, and meat that are high in calcium. For example, spinach, nori, and dried shrimp all have very high calcium content. You can also make bone broth to drink, as it is also very rich in calcium. Get more sun exposure to enhance calcium absorption. Finally, I wish you a speedy recovery.
