How do I get rid of foot cramps??!
Question: I am a dancer and a few hours after class I start getting HORRIBLE foot cramps. I will be doubled over crying they hurt so bad. Other times they're not bad though. They last a long time too. So I was wondering... how can I get rid of these horrible pains in my feet??

Part of the problem might be you aren't stretching out your foot. It can kind of hurt but you should stretch out your foot if you don't already. Also when it starts cramping point your toes towards you.. don't bend them don't to the ground- it can make it worse.
Eat more potassium, tomatoes, bananas, etc. Also drink some tonic water. It contains quinine, which gets rid of muscle cramps. It also helps to do some good stretching and drink plenty of water. Best to you.
Every day drink 1 glass of tonic water that contains quinine.
