Brief Answer:
It would....

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Magnesium supplements with other multivitamin supplement pills will help with cramping and calves tightness. But sometimes the cause could be other than nutrient deficiency such as anemia, hypothyroidism and so on.
Therefore if symptoms persists despite supplements, it needs to be evaluated by your physician.

Hope this answered your question. Let me know if you need clarifications.
