Sometimes I get leg cramps in bed and I've found that I have to pull my toes upward to make it recover. Doing that seems to release whatever is cramping up for me after a few seconds.
I used to have to get out of bed and stand on it before I discovered the other trick.
- difosfor 5y agoSame here, have also tried that in the water, but didn't work that time. I get the feeling that some of the cramps people talk about here are worse though, or perhaps it's also about how much pain you can stand or how you react to such a situation in general.
- Natsu 5y agoYeah, I don't think mine have ever felt like a serrated blade going through my leg, as another comment here mentioned, so probably not quite as bad. But it's definitely bad enough that I can't use the leg properly and it seems to manifest when I move my leg just wrong somehow, even in bed. The trick to pull the tip of my foot backwards really helped a lot because then I don't have to try to stand or anything. I've never had a cramp like that in water, thankfully.
