    Default Serious health question

    So last night I woke up with my left calf muscle in extreme pain. I think I woke up screaming, it was so bad. I massaged my calf for a few minutes and it mostly went away and I went back to sleep, but anyone have any idea what this could be? I think its a Charley Horse but Im not sure.

    Sounds like an ordinary muscle cramp. Nothing to worry about IMO.

    Or like you said, Charley Horse

    Perfectly normal don't worry. I get them in my feet sometimes, it hurts and goes away just as fast

    Ok good. Just wanted to make sure that it wouldnt lead to anything more serious.

    This why they advice you to be careful with alcohol at the beach, can you imagine why you won't be able to swim back if your muscless cramp on you ;)

    Don't worry, anyway

    It happens, don't worry about it. And yeah it's pretty darn painful.

    I used to get those all the time, not a happy way to be woken up in the middle of the night. Potassium is your friend.

    You really listened to them? It simply means that your leg will fall off soon. I saw it happen to a friend fo mine, it changed his life forever.
