What Is The Remedy For Having Problems With Pain And Irritability In My Legs And The Cause For It?

Hi I'm hoping you may be able to help. I have been having problems with pain and irritability in my legs for years mainly at night causing me to have real problems getting to sleep. Also the problem that is causing the most pain is with my feet. If I point my toes or feet the toes lock in a sort of Spasm causing allot of pain and take a few minutes before I cant get the spasm to release and my toes to go back to normal. Its got to a stage that I cant point my toes or they lock causing allot of pain. Can you think of any reason why this is happening and if so what can I do to make the pain easier to live with.

Irritability and spasm of legs can be due to low calcium, low salt or low vitamin B 12 in body. i would like you to contact a diagnostic center and get your BMD test,vitamin b 12 estimation and Blood pressure check. i would also recommend you to start calcium and vitamin D3.You take more salt in body like in lemonade,or fruit juice. if you would be my patient than I would put you on acyl carnitine tablet for 3 months. This is a muscle tonic, which helps in cramps.
