Accepted Answer

Cramps: Recurrent muscle cramps or spasms may be caused by deficiencies of calcium or magnesium. Sometimes they are due to excessive muscle tightness caused by various muscle activities during the day. In this case stretching maneuvers of the legs before going to bed may prevent the nocturnal spasms. You could also take a magnesium supplement daily. See your physician as needed.

Need evaluation: Pain coming from the hip can give you knee pain, so a problem in the hip joint is a possibility - but the diagnosis and treatment do require an evaluation to know for sure.
