So i'm 20 years old, i get these leg pains, its about every night they hurt. seems the only thing to help is a hot bath or heating pad.why?

Muscle cramps : These are common. Most frequent cause is cold extremities during sleep, excessive exercise, or caffeine use. Please try to discontinue caffeine, and wear socks or leggings to bed. If this doesn't help, see your, doctor.
