Introduction: Chronic nonspecific musculoskeletal pains a pain persisting more than its expected tissue healing time and is commonly seen in patients attending orthopaedic clinics. Materials and method: We did a prospective observational study including the patients who attended our outpatient department in a tertiary care hospital with sample size n= 200 from period January 2019 to December 2020(two years), with follow up on 2 weeks, 6 weeks and 4 month and 6-month interval. We assessed the onset of pain, involvement of the region (localised or generalised) likely pain over nape of neck, shoulder pain, low back ache, vague pain with generalised weakness. On follow up we assessed the pain over visual analog pain scale and generalised wellbeing of the patients. Result: Our study was conducted in a tertiary care hospital, so the large number of patients were presented to us with complaints of pain after applying inclusion and exclusion criteria we were able to include 200 patients in our study out of which 20 years was youngest and 72 years was the oldest patient , with median range of 44.21 years , we tried to maintain an equal male to female population with 52.5% female patients for data comparison and removal of gender as confounding factor or 105 patients. Conclusion: Musculoskeletal pain is a chronic idiopathic condition which is difficult to diagnose and treat. Both vitamin D3 and B12 supplements have shown to provide significant pain relief in this condition.
