Is this a charley horse?!


Question:

Is this a charley horse?

Is it a charley horse if you get a leg cramp in your calve muscle while sleeping or laying down? I get them once in a while and I got one the other night and it really hurt so I was just wondering if that's probably the culprit and what I could do to prevent it from happening again. Thanks. :)


Answers:

Yes, that would be it. Try eating bananas -- insufficient potassium can cause that problem.
