Dear Sir
Please consult a neurosurgeon as your mother has to be clinically examined to find the nature and extend of compression
Only after that we can proceed

Hello Sir,
it is less likely that her pain is because of the injection. That injection is Vitamin D and is not harmful in any way. You can continue her medicines as they will only reduce the pain.

Hello there.
is it both legs or only one leg?
when did it start? and is it on and off type?
does it pain more in any one position?
i suggest you get a MRI done of the spine so see if there is any nerve compression and if there is, then the degree of it.
i wouldn't change the existing treatment as its perfect, but if its so unbearable, instead of lorsaid-p you can take cap. proxyvon-plus twice a day after food.
revert with the reports or consult a orthopaedic and spine surgeon for further help.
best regards.
