Legs Cramp at Night

Yes. One thing I've found to help is to stand up, lifting the toes of the cramping leg up, so the ball of the foot remains on the ground.

I am not a doctor but I used to have terrible cramps at night. I started using magnesium supplements and the cramps are mostly gone. I started with a low dose and kept going up until the cramps stopped. I take that dose once a day. Maybe you could check with your doctor and see if it is okay for you to try magnesium.

I have sometimes had terrible cramps at night. It seems that it may be partly due to a lack of potassium in the diet. Bananas are a good source of potassium as are many dried fruits and spinach, broccoli, peas and cucumbers (to mention just a few!). Try to include more potassium in your diet and, in the mean time, I found that getting up and sitting in a chair for 10 or 15 minutes helped the cramps to pass. It's all to do with circulation (or the lack of it) really and also to do with what your blood is bringing to the muscles.

It has happened, we use to just lick salt.

I have read it could be a couple of things. Dehydration and deficiency of potassium. Maybe try drinking more water and eating potassium rich foods and see if that helps.

And you take some glucose too, its also due to serious standing or walking up the hill

I get cramp from time to time but I don't know what causes my cramps.

Always. While sitting, sometimes moving, while sleeping. It comes instantly. It really is painfully for some time. I message it to get rid of it.
