I would try some magnesium lotion. (oral magnesium also works and you can do that if you choose. Just pick one that is NOT magnesium Oxide).

CVS Epsom lotion is good, but they are discontinuing it. Some stores may still have it.

Another is Epsom-it lotion.
If you Google it you will find it on Ebay and Amazon. (and some other places).

Rubbed into the skin/muscle areas it can relax muscles and stop pain. Magnesium blocks pain receptors and relaxes contracted muscles.

You can try epsom salt baths to see how you react. 4-6 oz of epsom salts in a not too hot bath, will get absorbed and perhaps help with these unwanted sensations. We on PN use it often.
Be careful getting out of the bath...epsom salts makes it slippery.
