Bruh today after school I got them in both of my legs and I couldn't even stand up and they lasted for more than 15 minutes, I need to go to the doctor.😂

Had the worst and first triple cramp in the middle of the night. I woke up to my right calf completely flattened out and contracted, and when I attempted to stretch it out, my hamstring cramped. Then the quad. For two whole minutes, I tried not to cry bc my brother and Dad were sleeping, but after long enough, I couldn't hold it in. I was sobbing and sobbing, calling for help when my brother heard me and raced to my room, bless his soul. He massaged my leg out for a good long while, gave me muscle recovery pills, and heat cream to soothe my leg. Mind you, I had just completed a 2-hour volleyball try-out just hours before after not playing volleyball for about six years. I shocked my legs with the sudden exertion, that's for certain. Never again. Never. Again. God bless my little brother.

Ya whenever it happens I immediately just stretch my leg out as far as it can and massage the spot where it is and it stops in a couple of seconds

I'll get calf cramps when I stretch in my sleep. I can usually stop them from getting painful by extending my leg perpendicular to my body and pointing my toes back down towards me causing the heel to be the highest point. Whenever these get frequent, I'll buy a bunch of bananas, eat them over the course of a week and that will tend to keep me for a while.

I too sometimes wake up and as I extend my leg get the worst of cramps....most often the curling toes back works, but sometimes I literally have to mentally check into the relax zone and do everything I can to mentally "calm" both mind and leg. It does go away after a while. But it's a real shitty way to wake up and the residual pain lasts most of the day as I limp through the morning. Any real use that morning can trigger an instant relapse.

I have muscle issues due to systemic lupus erythmatosis. Part of SLE (lupus) is you have many food allergies, bananas are in the Latex plant family, I am allergic to Latex, so I opted into taking a natural potassium pill every other day, I will add that you should be cautious about potassium if you have heart issues. But, natural banana is great, also my sodium levels in labs are also low. I eat a lot of salt too? Go figure. I do find my muscles spasms with stretching and sometimes twitch, but if I take the potassium it helps immensely. I have literally woken myself up cursing due to Charlie Horses in my calves. Avocados are also in the Latex family-just an FYI. So as many ppl are allergic to Latex, be aware of that, supplementary capsules for potassium helps me.

Came here because I just got a muscle cramp in the calf a minute ago. It lasted a whole minute and it damn hurts so much.

I almost got a cramp listening to this. I couldn’t make it past a minute.

Generally happens after I wake up, right after I stretch involuntarily, I know exactly what's about to happen. Also happened when I was playing basketball, I was dehydrated and I landed awkwardly and it was probably the worst cramp yet. I'm curious why the body does this or why it generally affects the legs.

I have done a double shift at work standing for ar list 12 hours. Last night I had severe cramps I almost faint from pain. I drunk electrolyte last night and all day this morning and I am hoping they will not return. I also regularly go to the gym .

To be honest this felt like when I was in a middle of cracking my fingers, but they suddenly stopped trying so it did it. I just had my first cramp today.

I got a muscle cramp in my calf on my leg and it hurt badly after doing exercises to help my lower back that was hurting. That caused my leg to hurt. So it really hurts when I get out of bed for the first time. I’ve tried stretching and massage. It still hurts. Thanks.

I got so used to calf cramp that i fall back to sleep after waking up from cramp. I learned to just relax, because moving your muscle makes it worse, focus on your breathing and relaxing your body. I also got cramp while swimming once, but like i said i just relax and i was able to swim out with one leg.

I get sometimes cramps too the only thing understood is that they are like a powered battery, when you let them go they use some kind of latent power and stop when its depleted. Also stretching the muscle so it does not have means of compressing stops it

I have these weird cramps that can happen almost anytime, at random but mostly happen while doing sports, and that is it feels like my toes are crossing each other, it feels really weird, and usually what happens, is the cramp occurs for several minutes, then stops for like 10 - 30 seconds, then happens again for several minutes, than stops for like 10 - 30 seconds, and keeps on repeating, I hope whoever is reading this could potentially tell me if they have experienced the same thing, or if they know what could cause it.

I goten a lot of cramps in my leg locking the joint is a pretty useful way to counter a cramp in your leg or arm.

Drink 1 glass of water every hour during the day, then 1 glass before bed and keep a bottle near your bed and take a few sips every time you wake up at night. See how it goes. For me it keeps these cramps away, but the actual reason for these cramps is either vascular or nervous (nerves affected near the lower spine). I first had these cramps at night (woke up screaming) then during the day - brutal pain, need to stretch that area for relief (move painful feet behind you, bend the other knee, push with both hands against a wall, feel how the painful muscle is stretching, look up goggle "calf stretches"). Drink water constantly to keep these away.

I’ve had my whole calf and thigh cramp up while surfing. Not a fun thing when you can’t stand to stretch and are trying to get under waves. Leg end up hurting for a day or two afterwards

It's so terrible to have cramps at night when you have the deepest sleep and you are so tired...when i have i jump up and i don't dare to go to bed like 30minutes because i know it may happen again and it's so painful expecially when you can't put your leg down, i mean, it doesnt go down i have to push it very strongy so i could but my leg down to the ground. No doctor have never helped me with this problem so i figured my own that it only happens when i had a bad day or very big stress or too much sport or i have been too long in the rain. But for me help magnesium, when i take one i feel better or pillow.

Calf cramps are possible one of the most painful things to endure, holy shit it hurts, especially at night when you can't scream.... I always have it at night when I try to stretch them...

I’ve never experienced this until last night when I placed my leg in an awkward position. Immediately the pain was sharp and I felt a hard lump on my calf muscle. I was so worried thinking there was a blood clot. I stood up and tried to walk it off and it was painful but thankfully it slowly lessened. This morning I can extend my toes and expand my calf muscle and still feel some pain. Horrible experience but I will try hydrating more from now on. Don’t want to experience that again.

A muscle spasm only leg woke me up the other and it was an incredibly sharp painful experience. After doing some investigation, the only thing I had recently changed was my diet, I had been on the Keto diet for a few weeks. Looks like I must’ve been low on potassium and magnesium. I’ve since started taking those supplements but even days later my leg is still feels tender to the touch. I hope I don’t get anymore bc I swear I wanted to scream so hard and I didn’t know what to do with myself other than try to gently massage the calf, worst pain ever.

Muscle cramps can be a common issue for athletes, including tennis players, especially during high-intensity tournaments. They can occur due to factors such as dehydration, electrolyte imbalances, overuse of muscles, or inadequate stretching. To help prevent muscle cramps, stay well-hydrated, maintain a balanced diet, warm up properly, and incorporate regular stretching into your tennis routine. If cramps persist or become severe, it's advisable to consult with a sports medicine specialist for a personalized plan to address and prevent them.

my dad had really bad cramps that went on for weeks!, we didnt know what it really started this, i only started to look up cramps after his death

I've seen different Dr's an uncountable amount of times for full body chronic cramping and have zero answers. They get so bad I can't move, random places like my back, sides, arms, chest, stomach, upper legs, toes, just about everywhere and for no reason, just laying on the couch and BAM 4 or 5 muscles will completely lock up. It's not a good life living like this, and with no answers. I'm plenty hydrated, eat a very well balanced diet and get good exercise. All blood work is always spot on and all tests are 100% perfect. Any advice anyone has would be great, Thanks.

I'm sorry to hear about the chronic cramping you've been experiencing and the frustration of not finding any answers despite seeking medical help. It can be disheartening when symptoms persist without a clear diagnosis. Seek a specialist: If you haven't already, you may want to consult with a specialist who focuses on conditions related to muscles, such as a neurologist or a rheumatologist. They may have additional expertise and diagnostic tools to help identify the underlying cause of your symptoms. Keep a symptom diary: Documenting your symptoms, including when they occur, their duration, and any potential triggers, may provide valuable information to your healthcare provider. It can help identify patterns or factors that could contribute to the muscle cramping. Consider a second opinion: If you're not satisfied with the answers or progress you've received from your current healthcare providers, seeking a second opinion from another medical professional or a different medical center might be beneficial. Explore alternative therapies: Alongside traditional medical care, you could explore complementary and alternative approaches such as physical therapy, acupuncture, or massage therapy. These modalities may help manage symptoms and improve overall well-being. Psychological support: Chronic pain and unexplained symptoms can take a toll on mental health. Consider seeking support from a therapist or counselor who specializes in chronic pain management or coping strategies.
