Hi,
Thanks for your query.

Due to compression of lumber nerve root there can be cramping in your leg.
For these symptoms analgesic and neurotropic medication like pregabalin can be started consulting your doctor.
Till time, avoid lifting weights, Sit with support. You can consult physiotherapist for help.
Physiotherapy like ultrasound and interferential therapy will give quick relief.
I will advise to check your vit D3 level.


I do hope that you have found something helpful and I will be glad to answer any further query.
Take care
