I have had this pain all day, it is isolated to one spot, behind the leg on the top of the calf, just below my knee... Nothing I do has made it any better...  I hate to have drank at least 10 8oz bottles of water today.... Anyone have any ideas? |

Massaging and/or walking it off normally eases cramp, but sometimes you can still feel a bad attack 2/3 days letter (since a severe cramp damages the muscles and it takes a will to ease/repair). Hydration is great for cramps, but you also need salts in your system too. Sometimes by hydrating heavily (you have drunk quite a lot today  ) we dilute the salts in our blood too much and that gives us cramps. I once say my husband suffer very badly from this (heavy exercise, drank LOTS of water, hadn't eaten all day - INCREDIBLY bad cramp). So you need to make sure you have enough salt in your diet.Hope that it feels a LOT better soon  QT |
