Hello,
I have studied your case and I think that you are having the lack of salt in the body. I would suggest you drink the glass of water with salt. It will improve your cramps immediately. Also in future avoid very cool temperature and take regular calcium and vitmainD. Calcium should be 1000 mg daily and Vitamin D 60000 unit per week for six weeks. I hope these steps will be helpful for you. Let me know if there is any other follow-up questions.
thanks
