Hello.Thank you for posting.

Muscle cramps have several causes. Some cramps result from overuse of your muscles. This typically occurs while you’re exercising.

Muscle injuries and dehydration can also trigger cramps. Dehydration is the excessive loss of fluids in the body. Low levels of any of the following minerals that contribute to healthy muscle function may also cause muscle cramps:

calcium
potassium
sodium
magnesium
Low blood supply to your legs and feet can cause cramping in those areas when you exercise, walk, or participate in physical activities.

Your doctor can tell you more after a thorough evaluation and possibly blood tests.
