Muscle cramps are involuntary spasms of various muscles that occur suddenly. These contractions are usually excruciating and can affect a variety of muscle groups. Muscles on the rear of your lower leg, the back of your thigh, and the front of your thigh are commonly impacted.
Muscle cramps can be caused by overuse of a muscle, dehydration, muscle tension, or just maintaining a position for an extended period of time.
However, in many situations, the cause remains unknown. Although the majority of muscular cramps are harmless, some may be caused by an underlying medical problem, such as insufficient blood flow.
Muscle cramps can occur after prolonged durations of activity or physical labor, especially in hot temperatures. Muscle cramps can also be caused by certain medicines and medical disorders. Self-care methods may typically be used to alleviate muscular cramps at home.
