Hello,
I read carefully your query and understand your concern.
The symptoms seem to be related to a muscle cramp.
I suggest using a muscle relaxant such as Baclofen three times a day.
I so suggest using magnesium supplement daily for muscle relaxation.
Warm compresses can also be helpful.
Hope my answer was helpful.
If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.
Kind regards!
