Leg cramps at night

Keep a fast food package of mustard in your nightstand and eat it what you wake up with a cramp.

Won’t prevent them, but it works when you get one.

DD; You give your kids motor oil for a bad belly?

Some of the old timer marines that I work with swear by this type stuff…

When I get a cramp, I’ll drink a tablespoon of vinegar, you can feel the cramp fading away. So if the soap stops working, give the vinegar a shot. Tastes pretty rough, but not as bad as the craps.

Try quinine.

Glad for you and especially him Joe! You live and learn.

my wife is allergic to banana’s so the doc told her to eat kiwi. They have more potassium than banana’s.

not sure about the white soap that’s a new one to me. what workaholic said on quinine… good stuff for cramps and come’s natural with some gin and tonic. :wink:

Before I got out of the service they quit with salt tabs and went to “stress tabs”. They had very little sodium but lot’s of trace minerals and electrolytes. Awesome for cramps after a hard day of improper hydration. I believe Medi lyte is pretty close to what they used to give us. It seems to work about the same.

You’ve got me beat by a couple of years, but I too get bad leg cramps. Vinegar, drinking lot’s of water, Kiwi or banana, Tonic water/with quinine, and lastly I prop my feet on a pillow to slightly elevate my legs… Good luck Mr. Stono.

Went to bed at 8:30 woke up at 3pm.Potty trip with the dogs and back to bed.Just woke up no cramps all night.Love me some (**() Ivory soap and the friends that put me on to using it.

my mother has been doing the Ivory soap for years and swears by it. she also keeps the vinegar nearby just in case

I used to get leg cramps pretty bad like Stono they would keep me up.I started taking some over the counter medicine then found out it had quinine in it,so I started drinking Tonic water. I do not stand on concrete for 8-10 a day any more so do not get them nearly as frequently,but I will try the soap and I always have apple cidar vinegar.

Up date! Some minor cramps but nothing like i was having.Last night just one.If I do not stretch out my legs no cramps.I think for some reason the soap works???
