Hi
Welcome to healhcaremagic
After going through your query I concluded that you are having tight muscles of both legs. It may be related to vitamin and trace elements deficiencies. You can test your vitamin D3 level and if it is low you can take supplements of it. Calcium and EVIONLC are useful. For pain relief you can take analgesic such as ibuprofen.You can discuss with your Doctor about it. Hope your query get answered. If you have any further questions then don't hesitate to writing to us . I will be happy to help you.
