Hello. I suppose your wife is suffering from severe knee osteoarthritis for which she has been adviced knee replacement. Muscle cramps can be due to a number of reasons including dehydration, dyselectrolytemia, calcium or magnesium deficiency, overexertion of muscles during day and other neurological disorders. Keep her hydrated with lot of fluids. See a Rheumatologist who would examine and order tests accordingly.

Hi lybrate-user, your complains of leg pain and numbness might be due to some nerve compression due to a slipped disc. These are not related to vit or calcium deficiency. I will need some more info to tell you what is the reason for your leg pain. Its better to do an mri ls spine to rule out slipped disc. Also, better to consult an orthopaedician if the complains become severe.
