Charlie horse in leg treatment

Muscle cramps can be sudden, uncontrolled and particularly painful, this type of pain is most commonly experienced in the legs, and therefore often is referred to as a "Charley Horse/charlie horse".

The exact reason of a leg cramp is not completely understood, but there are some factors that are thought to contribute to this condition:

Muscle fatigue

The most usual source that is typically experienced in patients who develop leg cramps is exercising in an unusual way, meaning either more activity or a different exercise. Leg cramps are more common in young (adolescent age) and older (over 65) patients. Patients who weigh more are more prone to developing leg cramps. Also, a quantity of drugs can cause side effects of leg cramping.

'Charley-horses/charlie horse' is the foremost location your body targets when you are dehydrated. Drink plenty of water! I recommend purified water and Mineral Water mixed 50/50. The Mineral Water is going to put back into the muscles the minerals they are losing on a daily basis. You must drink beyond your thirst to get the benefits of hydration.

I It is recommended for adults and children to drink around 40 ounces of water per 100 pounds of your body weight. But, also take into account the temperature, amount of excercise and your state of health.
