Hello

The symptoms seem to be related to muscle cramps. I suggest using muscle relaxants such as Baclofen. I also suggest using magnesium supplement for muscle relaxation. Warm compresses and warm shower can also be helpful.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
