When I was getting muscle cramps in calves and feet I was found to have a potassium deficiency, and put on potassium pills, along with continuing to eat foods high potassium (ie, bananas, oranges, OJ, milk, yogurt, etc.).

Have his B12 Checked Immediately!!! <<< Along with that test get HCG/ HCMG done -- this determines cell size of the red blood cells if there is a high score on there and his b12 comes back normal that score may not be normal for him. He may be in the early stages of B12 Deficiency. Very horrible so get checked right away.
Have his Potassium checked for Hypocalcimia
Have Sodium checked
Also have him checked for Restless Leg Syndrome.
Get CT/ MRI done on knee to make sure that the Knee is not blown out. May have ripped at one point and the scarring is occuring under the knee cap.
