How To Treat The Cramps In Foot?

My feet are cramping. This is not normal. Both at the same time. Pain subsides or stops at the same time in the same areas. Calves also. Toe joint freezes upwards and I am unable to walk. Last as long as 5 minutes. Rubbing does not help. Started last night, been happening all day every few hours. Very scary. I m a truck driver for 10 years. Never had foot cramps, till now or leg cramps in the day either. Would really like to hear something.
