Dr. Bernard Seif answered

Specializes in Clinical Psychology

Leg cramps & back: pain are things you need to see your doctor about. If he/she rules out medical conditions you might consider having your magnesium level checked by the doc. Low magnesium can cause muscle cramping. Peace and good health.
