I believe that many people have experienced leg cramps, some people are normal physiological phenomena, and some people are related to pathological factors, especially people who often have leg cramps.
Most people think that leg cramps are caused by calcium deficiency, but this is only one of the reasons, at this time we need to pay attention to the part of the leg cramps, is the thigh, or the calf, but also to understand the time of onset, which is essential for the analysis of specific causes.
Therefore, cramps are a very complex condition, the causes are also varied, here is to understand, the legs often cramp 5 bane.
First, overactiveness during the day
For young people, overactivity or overwork during the day leads to fatigue of the leg muscles and soft tissues, and too much lactic acid accumulation can make the legs cramp and pain.
In this case, it is necessary to stay in bed, raise the affected limb, prevent the leg cramps from worsening, and if necessary, give local acupuncture, traditional Chinese medicine, and massage to alleviate the disease.
Second, calcium deficiency
Some pregnant mothers or young and middle-aged people, in the process of human growth and development, it is easy to have leg cramps, which is directly related to short calcium in the body.
Due to the large calcium demand of these two groups of people, once the calcium deficiency is serious, it may also lead to other hazards, and I hope that everyone will pay attention to it.
Especially during pregnancy, women need calcium to promote fetal growth and development, once often deficient in calcium, it is not only a problem of leg cramps, but also may affect fetal development.
Third, tetanus infection
Tetanus mainly refers to the wound infected with tetanus bacteria, resulting in acute infection or poisoning, such as skin biting by some small animals or insects, the wound is contaminated by soil or some bacteria, which will cause tetanus.
Although tetanus has a certain incubation period, most patients have skeletal or muscular dysfunction, the most common of which is leg cramps.
Fourth, wear high heels
Some women have calf cramps late at night, which may be related to wearing high heels during the day. Because the time to wear high heels during the day is too long, the leg muscles are in a state of fatigue for a long time, and calf cramps will occur at night.
So for the sake of women's health, it is best not to wear too high heels or wear them for too long, for a long time, not only will it cause leg cramps, but also may cause other problems.
Fifth, cold legs
Leg cramps are caused by cold legs, which can generally be relieved by hot compresses, in addition, it may also be caused by calcium deficiency, so it is recommended to eat some calcium-containing foods.
In addition, it cannot be ruled out that it is formed by overwork or long-term adherence to a posture, at this time it is necessary to rest more, do a good job of keeping warm, do not insist on a posture for a long time, and alleviate the disease after a period of time.
The most important thing is not to wear shorts, be sure to pay attention to keep warm, and never ignore the effects of poor blood circulation in the legs.
According to the above introduction, there are many causes of leg cramps, which are the five most common factors, but for people who often have leg cramps, it is necessary to understand the actual causes.
Especially in daily life, when most people are related to cramps and fatigue and cold, the symptoms are the same, and it is difficult to determine the specific cause, which is very unfavorable for later treatment.
Therefore, if necessary, patients can go to the hospital to determine that if the leg cramps are caused by leg thickening, excess nutrition or lack of exercise, it is necessary to improve the impact of leg cramps through diet and appropriate exercise.
