Cramps – involuntary contractions of a muscle or group of muscles that are accompanied by severe pain. There can be several causes: stress, fatigue, lack of magnesium in the body, hypothermia, or even varicose veins.
They most often occur at night, when the body is completely relaxed.
This happens because of an incorrect position of the body in bed and poor blood circulation to the muscles. If you want to get rid of the sharp pain, sit on the bed and pinch the affected areas several times. Then you should stand up and massage your calf muscle.
Get rid of persistent cramps by regularly taking vitamins and also using an ointment made from petroleum jelly and comfrey juice.
Procedure
- Mix comfrey juice and petroleum jelly in a ratio of 1: 2
- Every day apply this homemade ointment to the places where cramps occur.
- In a month you will notice that the frequency of cramps has significantly decreased. For an even greater effect, give yourself a small warm-up each evening before going to sleep.
