Dehydration or..: Dehydration is one of the main causes. Electrolyte replacement is key apart from water. Other aspects are muscle and fascia tension, so stretching is key. Try some Magnesium before bed and tonic water with quinine in the tonic water. Can get a a grocery store. One more thing to consider is vericose veins. If you have them, they can affect blood flow.
