Answer: A phosphorus

Explanation:

The nutrient supplement a doctor should prescribe is the phosphorus. Phosphorus is the chief element that is necessary for the maintenance of the bones and teeth. In the deficiency of phosphorus numbness and weakness of the bones may occur and the bones may become fragile or weak and severe pain may occur in the muscles.
