Are charley horses keeping you up at night? If so, leg spasm treatment in Maryland may be the avenue you need to find relief and to finally get a good night of sleep.
So, why do leg spasms happen and what is the best way to treat them?
A charley horse is a muscle spasm that occurs when the muscles tense suddenly.
No, a charley horse can occur anywhere on the body. However, they are most commonly found to happen in the legs.
There are many things that can cause a leg spasm including the following:
Stretching is one of the best ways to combat the tensing muscles that happen during a charley horse.
Other at-home remedies include massaging the area, or even taking a bath with Epsom salts. Oher patients find that applying a heating pad may relax the tensed muscles.
