What Causes Painful Muscle Spasms Throughout The Body?
The last 6 months or so I have begun to experience painful muscle cramps throughout my body. I ve had muscle cramps in my feet and legs for a couple/three years; especially when I was swimming. Is this just old age progressing. I ll be 70 in two months.

Hi,
The symptoms can be related to magnesium deficiency. I suggest you to use magnesium and calcium supplements. I also suggest hot baths for relief.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
