Find out why: Need to find out why you have "cramps" in lower extremities, poor circulation may cause claudication ( sometimes defined by patients as cramps in legs when walking), you need to see your doctor for further evaluation.

Few things : That are common treatments for cramps: make sure well hydrated, magnesium supplements can help and or make sure potassium levels are good. You can try eating a banana or two. If no improvement from the above, i would see my internist.
