What Is The Remedy For The Tingling And Cramps In The Legs?
Hi I am 48 yrs old. I've been suffering from tingling in my legs and cramps on my legs at night. This week I've been feeling it more and more. It's mostly on my left leg. What do you think it is? I am not active, don't do any exercises and my line of work, I sit all day.

Restless legs can be either due to lack of vitamin B12 or due to lack of calcium in muscles. I would recommend you to get these tests.
1. Serum b12 estimation
2. serum calcium
after this start taking Methylcobal( Neurobion) and calcium and vitamin D3.
3. Tablet Amytryptalin 10 mg per day is also useful.
