Hi lybrate user muscle cramps can be relieved by medicine or electrotherapy treatment. It could be because of low calcium diet or minerals, anti-oxidents, vitamins. Avoid spicy junk food. Take nutritional diet with vegetables and salad. Add fruit or fresh fruit juice, coconut, vitamin c reach fruits amla, orange, lemon, papaya etc. Plenty of water daily and start light smooth exercises of back and legs. Self stretching exercises of calf muscle with in comfort level.
