Help Needed for My 3-Year-Old's Leg Pain

My 3-year-old girl (12 kg) keeps crying out of leg pain at least four times a month. I checked with a doctor, and she gave a Vitamin D 60000 sachet to be taken once every 15 days for 6 weeks. I don't know how to give this and is this the right dosage. Should it be mixed with water directly? Also, is there any superfood that can help my kid improve calcium and Vitamin D levels? I am really worried about her leg pain. Any advice would be helpful.
