inner thigh cramps
by magster112, Mar 26, 2009 11:20PM
Three times (separated by about a month) I have had severe cramps in my inner thighs. It is like a charley horse, which I used to get in my calves years ago. But this is in my thighs. This is a very large muscle, therefore it is a lot of pain, and kind of scary. This happens for no apparent reason, after no exercise. I was just watching TV. I can not move for about 10 minutes. It is sometimes severe enough to make me scream or cry. My husband put moist warm towels on me and it went away. I am not on any restrictive diet or anything either. I am afraid this will happen in public. What is going on?

It is important to rule out circulatory problems like varicose veins which can cause severe muscle cramps. The chances of peripheral vascular diseases are more if you have a positive history of smoking.
I would suggest you to schedule an appointment with your GP for clinical evaluation. In the meantime make sure to do some leg and thigh exercises drink plenty of water and maintain your salt and electrolyte intake.
Thanks
