[|AI|]  Welcome to Chat Doctor Good Day Since your Mum is in her 50s the Calcium-Vitamin D supplement given is to prevent Osteoporosis and to treat vitamin D deficiency induced bone and joint pain. The granuloma can be due to many reasons commonly TB, Syphilis, Acidosis. Since she has joint pain, do get her checked up for Acidosis as this can also cause arthritis, eye pain, cough, shortness of breath, skin pain, kidney stones as well. Review her with the Orthopaedician to discuss this possibility and get adequately treated.
