What Causes Cramps In The Hands And Fingers?
I m asking for a 78 year old woman with diabetes...she has been having hand and finger cramps on and off for a few days, now all day today, also accompanied by occasional cramps in her calf. Just wondering if diet could be the answer, or should she see her doctor since she takes multiple prescriptions for diabetes, high blood pressure, anxiety....
