Suggest Treatment For Severe Cramps In Lower Legs

I have severe cramps in both lower legs. Starts in the large muscle that runs along the shin bone down and across the top of my feet and pulls my toes and feet inward. I try to walk them off but it is very hard to walk and I almost have to throw my feet and legs out kind of like the high step of a horse. Please help as this is quite painful.

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello,

Your symptoms seem to be related to myalgia. I suggest using anti-inflammatory medication such as Ibuprofen three times a day. I also recommend to use magnesium supplement. Warm compresses for relief.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr Dorina Gurabardhi, General & Family Physician
