Avatar n tn A deficiency in the electrolyte, potassium may bring on leg cramps. Potassium is an essential element the body requires in order to regulate heartbeat and blood pressure. A deficiency in potassium can not only cause leg cramps, but also a host of other symptoms like chronic fatigue, muscle weakness and memory problems.

1904989 tn?1321776648 It sounds like you may be experiencing Charley horses (which are muscle cramps/ spasms) at night. These can be caused by a number of things including dehydration, low potassium, low calcium or low magnesium levels, or overuse or injury to the muscle. Charley horses are very painful. When you start to feel the pain you could try and alleviate it before it gets bad. You can massage the muscle, apply heat first and then ice once the cramping stops, NSAIDS such as ibuprofen can be helpful.

Avatar f tn ve had my menstrual since March of 2012. At first, it was regular in all terms of the word that can be described for just getting it, but over the course of a year it turned into my worst week of the month. My cycles have lasted for over 30 days without the use of hormone supplements, and the menstrual itself has usually occurred for seven to nine days.
