Hello there.
I can understand your concern.
Here are a few things that you can do at home which might be beneficial for you.
1. Have a high protein and calcium rich diet.
2. Get adequate sun exposure that is, sun exposure for 20 minutes with 20 percent of the body surface area exposed before 1 everyday. This would give you adequate anount of vitamin D3.
3. Tab. Supracal pro once a day for 1 month and tab. D3 must 60k once every week for 4 weeks.
4. Do some stretching and core strengthening exercises everyday. Suryanamaskar if you can do.
5. Consult a orthopedician for further evaluation and management.
Best regards.
Dr. Anil kumar jain.

May be you are having muscular spasms . You need to see a doctor who can examine you and advise as to what needs to be done. It is not possible to advise without examining.
