    The main causes of leg and foot cramps are:

    1) Poor local circulation, peripheral vascular lesions or varicose veins of the feet.

    2) Sudden change in ambient temperature.

    3) Emotional overtension.

    4) Excessive loss of water and salt, resulting in an imbalance of electrolytes in the body.

    5) Insufficient levels of minerals (such as magnesium and calcium) in the diet.

    6) The incidence of cramps in certain chronic diseases and pregnant women will also increase.

    7) Low thyroid, uremia or other physical diseases.

    8) Motor neuron disease, spinal radiculopathy or peripheral neuropathy.

    9) Certain drugs to lower blood pressure and blood lipids may also cause foot cramps.

    10) Unknown reasons.

    How to reduce the chances of leg and foot cramps:

    1) Pay attention to calcium supplementation: In the stage of puberty, calcium will be relatively lacking, which is more likely to cause cramps.

    2) If you are prone to cramps when sleeping at night, stretch on the cramp-prone area before going to bed.

    3) Keep your calves warm when sleeping. You can wear more clothes to keep your hands and feet warm.

    4) Excessive sagging of the foot plate (in the direction of the soles of the feet) may induce cramps in the lower legs. Avoid letting the foot plate hang too much when sleeping.

    5) There have been reports in the literature that vitamin E can reduce the number of attacks, but it is not conclusive.

    When the calf is cramping, you can straighten and rub the spasmodic calf muscles, and pull the foot plate that is cramping downward. And pay attention to the warmth of the calf muscles when the cramps are excessive. In folklore**, it is recommended to use your fingers to press the acupuncture points in the person, and you can also try it.

    Although the cramps in my feet hurt so much that I woke up in the middle of the night, the only thing I could be thankful about was that it would not be life-threatening.

    It must be uncomfortable... It's nothing, it's estimated that it's a lack of calcium, take some calcium tablets. Exposure to the sun can promote the absorption of calcium, but it can not be exposed to the sun, which hurts...
