Question:
What are some remedies for leg and foot cramps that occur early in the morning while a person is sleeping?
Answers:
This used to happen to me, usually when my feet got really cold. Since I started exercising (lifting weights and stationary biking) it has almost disappeared.
Anyway, out of habit I sleep with thick socks on and it really helps to drink plenty of water .
I wouldn't take supplements, as this could hide or change symptoms of serious medical conditions (blood clots, peripheral arterial disease) or cause other chemical imbalances within the body. Just eat a balanced diet, exercise and maintain yourself hydrated.
And, if this continues, check with your doctor!
