Leg pain is a very common complaint by the people ranging in all ages. The leg pain is basically caused by muscle. A cramp is the involuntary or often awfully painful contraction of the muscles. It has very common symptoms and may be caused due to many different reasons.

Some times muscle cramps may also be the result of some complications in pregnancy, thyroid disease, kidney disease or hypocalcemia. Electrolyte disturbance also falls in the causes of cramping. High level of lactic acid in the muscle causes the calcium pump between the muscle Lumen (A cavity or passage in a tubular organ) and sarcoplasmic reticulum to short circuit. These circumstances arise when the large amount of interstitial fluid is lost by the body causing a low level of calcium in the body.
