I have reflexes/spasms in my legs joint/ knee . wrist and elbow area which is evident at night when I am settling for the evening. I think this also has an effect on my breathing rhythm. On a rating of 1- 10 this is a 7. Not seriously painful. More annoying. Can affect my sleeping at night when trying to get to sleep.

Orthopaedic Surgeon, Joint Replacement 's  Response
Spasm in night time is more due to lack of salt and calcium in your body. I would suggest you to take salty lemonade and calcium rich diet like milk,egg and fish. also take methylcobal tablet and avoid excessive cold exposure. Your spasm will improve .If you are feeling like your condition is not improving then you need to visit a physcian and get your complete blood checkup.
