Brief Answer:
Can be due to many causes.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
The pain in both the legs in the night can be related to an improper diet, fluid and electrolyte imbalance, vitamin D3 deficiency or a nerve root irritation at the level of lumbar spine. This needs a few blood tests and investigations to find out the exact cause.
Do consult an orthopedician for proper investigations and related treatment.
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.
