Vit D and Zn deficiency are often associated with bone pain, fatigue, hair loss, sleep disorder, neck pain, and muscle disorders of which combined muscle tremors are a common manifestation.

Diagnosis: The case displayed D3 and Zn levels that were considered low at (3 ng/ml, and 35.18 ug/dl, respectively) with a typical symptomatology clinical symptom. Vit D supplements were given at a dose of 5000 IU per day, Dexday supplement at a dose of 50mg per day, Citro D3 at a dosage of 300000 IU per week, Zn supplement at a dose of 50mg per day, and ELLEZEN supplement at a dose of 40,000 IU per day, in addition to dietary supplements, sun exposure, and some exercises.
