From last few months I feel pain in my right leg (calf muscle) whenever I go to sleep at night. This is happening very frequently now. Iam 29 and my job requires 8-9 hrs of seating on my desk and 4 hrs of travelling. I consulted various docrors and as per them it may be because of blood flow in the nerves when body rests in the night. I did some syggested checkups like weight, sugar, bp and everything was normal. Could you please give some insight on this what could be the issue and its treatment.
