Brief Answer:
Electrolyte disturbances

Detailed Answer:
Hi there.

Thanks for the query.

Muscle cramps are most commonly due to dehydration, Electrolyte disturbances, excess caffeine intake, sleep deprivation etc.

Take Tablet Neurobion forte twice a day and Tablet L-Carnitine once a day for a month. Drink plenty of water. Eat plenty of fresh fruits and green leafy vegetables. Exercise daily. Avoid caffeine, tobacco, colas.

Get a Serum Electrolytes check up and upload the report for my review.

I hope I have answered your query.

I will be available to answer your follow up queries.

Regards,

Dr. Aashish Raghu
