What Causes Cramps On Foot?
Hi, my six year old son is experiencing foot cramps, usually in the evenings. He is on three medications for ADHD and OCD: Vyvanse, Fluoxatine and Intunive. Could this be a causing the foot cramps or is it something as simple as dehydration. We do live in an arid climate in Arizona.

Hi,
I understand your concerns. Usually cramps are due to magnesium deficiency. You should offer him foods that are rich in magnesium such as bananas or give a magnesium supplement.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
