I have frequent leg cramps which causes my low back and hips to hurt what can I do for them?

It actually usually stems from your back. Use this cushion to help position your back and pelvis better: http://www.arc4life.com/site/615058/product/SitBRs...

Pressure on specific nerves usually causes leg or back spasm or pain.

As far as nutrients, make sure you drink enough water; also a calcium defiency can cause frequent muscle spasms.

Don't use the quinine, people have died from it and there are law suits pending over it. See if your doc will put you on amitriplyne for the leg cramps, I take 1 25mg a day. All my blood work came back that they were fine but was still having cramps in feet they have now subsided after being on this med for about a month.

It could be hypoparathyroidism, which causes your body to have a calcium deficiency. I don't know if that's what it is, but if you've been having cramps & the enamel on your teeth has gotten weaker you might wanna get a blood test done to check your calcium levels.

usually quinine will help with leg cramps. It is available OTC, usually in the vitamin isle.

I have been studying holistic nutrition and within my studies I have just read that adding more magnesium to your diet may also help.

Is it a pinched nerve that could be causing it?
