@kamal Muscle cramps can have many causes, though sometimes the cause is unknown. Some of the most common causes include:
not stretching properly before physical activity
overuse of your muscles
dehydration
low electrolyte levels
low blood supply to the muscles
The main symptom of muscle cramping is pain, which can range in intensity from mild to severe. The affected muscle may also feel hard to the touch.
A cramp can last anywhere from a few seconds to several minutes. There are steps you can take to help reduce the likelihood of having a cramp in your calf muscles. These include staying hydrated and stretching before starting any type of physical activity.
