Question: What is the best home remedy for terrible leg cramps, at nite or early morning hours!?
Answers:
Try these things!. One place a bar of soap at the end of the bed where the legs are!. For some reason this stops cramps and there is no good reason why!. Second, when there is a cramp squeeze the upper lip as hard as you can for a few seconds and the cramp will subside!. Lastly, in an effort to ward off the cramps lay with the legs out straight!. Bring the front of the feet up toward the knees as hard as you can!. There will be a stretching sensation in the calves!. Hold that stretch for ten seconds relax and repeat four more times!. Do that right before going to sleep and before getting out of bed in the morning!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

When ever I wake up in the middle of the NIGHT with a bad leg cramp, I find just immediately stretching my leg out as much as possible subdues the pain very quickly, and can go back to sleep in about a minute!. I think leg cramps come from not drinking enough water, or at least that's what I was told!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Only thing that works for me is to walk up and down the hall for 45 minutes then stand and sleep with my head on the chest of drawers and my leg stretched at an angle that makes it look like I just got hit in the butt with frozen chicken!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
