General Surgeon 's  Response
Hello,

We have to rule out possibilities like hypocalcemia.

If symptoms persist, it is better to consult a physician and get evaluated.

As of now, you can take vitamin B12 supplements for symptomatic relief.

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

Regards,
Dr. Shinas Hussain,
