Losing weight drastically

Hi, 40 years Male here. I am noticing sudden changes in my weight. I kind of lost 6-7 Kgs in a span of 8 weeks, and continue to lose even after. I am currently at 67kgs and few months back was at 75Kgs. I also feel my bones are weak and fatigue. Situation is to gain just one kg of weight, I had to workout well, eat well and put in lots of efforts. But if I stop putting those efforts,I keep losing weight instantly and easily. This has been the case for me last few years and repeatedly happen. Also I always have aches n pains in my body, like knee joints, ankles, hip joints, or even elbows. I do regular workouts like few times a week and have been consistently doing this last few years. But still, I get joint pains and aches if I just stop doing it just for few days. Question is why do these pains occur? Is vitamin D deficiency an issue. Is it related to arthritis and how to diagnose n prevent it in early stages. Kindly advise and your expertise is needed.

ACL Tear Injury

My brother got ACL injury. We want to get him treated at Sports Injury Centre, Delhi. Is it possible that I can visit the hospital and make an appointment on his behalf and show his medical reports. Can the doctor directly tell a date for surgery without seeing the patient? Actually the concern is we will have to take the patient twice to Delhi, once for the checkup and next time for the surgery.
