Brief Answer:
Get investigated.
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
I have read your query.
Many patients came to me as the problem you are having I.e leg cramps or restless leg syndrome
I advise you in similar way as to do stretching exercise of leg and feet.
Avoid prolong standing, upstairs, squatting etc.
Drink a lot of liquid as dehydrate promotes this problem.
Have tab. aceclofenac100mg+ thiocolchicoside4mg twice a day and cap. levocarnitine by prescription of your family doctor as this medicine is not over the counter.
Apply hot packs.
Get serum sod, potassium, calcium done and send me report.
I hope it helps.
