Brief Answer:
Increase the fluid intake.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
Taking potassium chloride can cause some electrolyte imbalance for a short term. This can cause an irregular nerve irritability causing the occasional stabbing pain that you feel for 2-3 seconds. Increase your fluid intake and start with methylcobalamin supplements. This will improve in next few days.
I hope this answers your query.
In case you have additional questions or doubts, you can forward them to me, and I shall be glad to help you out.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
Dr. Praveen Tayal.
