"Spasticity is a condition in which certain muscles are continuously
contracted. This contraction causes stiffness or tightness of the muscles . .

Thanks for your response, Louise. That's how I understood spasticity. So what
I feel in my legs, ankles, feet is definitely spasticity. From a logical
standpoint, it seems that extra magnesium might help relax the 'contracting',
but it doesn't seem to - at least not on an immediate basis - but maybe over
time.
The remaining question is whether or not what we think of as banding that
occurs on the trunk area is essentially the same thing - i.e. caused from
continuously contracted muscles.
