[|Human|] i have a long history of achilles tendonitis, i am a runner and for approx 6 yrs this condition has persisted. i have treated it well with ice/rest/stretches/medication however it returns just below the calf. I have seeked help and discovered that it is a leg length issue as well as poor foot mechanices! My question is why does the area twitch so much? what can i do besides ice to reduce the twitching? if i massage gently i twitches like mad, no pain at all!
[|AI|]  Hello, The symptoms seem to be related to calf cramp which can be caused by many possible causes. One of the common causes are deficiencies of certain nutrients. So, I suggest taking a daily magnesium supplement. Gently stretch and massage the spasmodic muscle. Hold it in a stretched position until the spasms stop. Apply cold to sore muscles or heat to tense muscles. You can also use a muscle relaxant such as Baclofen for relieve. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
