Knee cramp

2017-04-23 16:27:14
I am overweight. To reduce my weight I started walking in the morning. For a few days I am facing a weird problem. When I step down from any staircase, I feel cramp around the muscle of my knee. It feels like my knee is gonna be locked. Due to my lifestyle I get 6 hours of sleep. Could you prescribe me any remedy for this problem?
