So far they wake me up and have not gotten bad because I catch them in time and stretch out the calf.
Does anyone have any idea why this might be happening now, after all these years of dancing with no problem? Does anyone have any suggestions as to what to do to prevent them? They don't happen every night, but often enough to that I am aware there might be a problem developing.
Regards,

A'isha check it with your doctor, you may need some vitamins and minerals and or antioxidants, there are different kinds of cramps the muscular cramps can be caused by bad circulation I hear potassioum can help. good look; Marie
