Hi,
Welcome to Healthcaremagic.com.

I had gone through your question I can understand your concern about your pain and stiffness in leg muscles.

As per your history you seems to have the deficiency of calcium or magnesium, you need to take supplements of of both the calcium as well as magnesium to improve your stiffness issue.

Also get a liver function test done, because sometimes the antiviral drugs may effect the physiology of liver and leads to the deficiency of some important vitamin like vitamin B12.

Also have warm bath that will relax your muscles.

Hope my answer will help you and visit us back if you have any questions further.

Regards
Dr Muzaffar Hussain Parray.
