Can a charley horse be really severe? I don't think so.?

Question

Ok. Now this is quite serious. I just woke really early this morning like at 3:00 a.m. with a severe pain in my leg then it quickly moved up my whole thigh and i felt like i was paralyzed in my right leg. I couldn't move an inch or turn to the side at all. It hurt so much i was crying for about 15-20 minutes. Then it slowly resided and i went back to sleep. I'm not kidding i woke up again at about 6:30 and it happened again except in my left leg doing it all over again!!!! What the h**l is going on with my body!!! I'm a pretty healthy girl and only 24 yrs. old Can someone help me or tell me what might be happeneing? :(

Answer 1

When I had one in the middle of the night, I screamed so loud that my neighbor thought someone was hurting me. I wouldn't wish that on my worse enemy! I was told I needed more potassium in my body and to eat a banana a day. My calf muscle was sore for quite awhile. I hope you feel better!

Answer 2

Wake you your boyfriend/husband and say

"STRETCH ME *****!"
