[|Human|] For the last six years I have been experiencing inner leg from stinging/tightness like a rubber band. At first I thought it was due to my varicose veins so I had that taken care of. But they still continued in one leg and now they are in both legs. I also had two knee replacements but this started before I had either of them done. It usually happens when I am on my feet for a long duration during the day. Sometimes I can prevent them by stretching them , but if it gets too bad, I can t move only stretch by putting my hands against the wall. The stinging/tightness starts on the inside of either leg from where the torso meets the leg to above the knee. It never goes below the knee. If I bend one of my legs I sometimes can feel the stinging/tightness starting. I do take 5mg or l0mg of cyclobenzaphr and it does help. I also have back issues , not seriously but feel this does come from the back. My question is what can I do to prevent these. Is magnesium a good source? I would appreciate any feedback on this. I am 68 years old and live in Wisconsin. Thank you. I have asked several people with b ack problems if they ever experienced this type of stoning/tightness in their inner leg but no one said they had. Thank you.
[|AI|]  Hello, I have studied your case. For these symptoms muscle relaxant with analgesic will help. You can apply local anti-inflammatory gel. Take plenty of water, fluid intake will dilute toxins. Physiotherapy with ultrasound and Tens will help you, You can do exercises like swimming, riding stationary bicycle, but do not overexert yourself. Take potassium rich diet. Hot and cold fomentation to leg. You need to continue you medication for a couple of month to see effects. Add tab methylcobal 1500 once day. Yes magnesium is good for back muscle strengthening.
