NEW YORK (Reuters) -- Older women who aren't getting enough vitamin D appear to be at risk for suffering from back pain, new research shows.
""Given that low vitamin D status is fairly prevalent in older adults and that there are significant functional consequences to untreated chronic pain, these findings argue strongly for querying adults about their pain and potentially screening older women with significant back pain for vitamin D deficiency,"" Dr. Gregory E. Hicks of the University of Delaware in Newark and his colleagues write.
Any idea?
It's not new thing.
