Try to keep off your feet or limit your time on your feet. Try not to over exert yourself or push your physical limitations otherwise you will end up cramping. Quinnalon helps a little if your insurance will pick up the tab. Very expensive prescript
ion. Try eating potassium like a banana or baked potato when the cramps start. Also cramping can be a lack of calcium, zinc and magnesium so try eating foods from these food groups. I have been battling the cramping for almost 3 years, now. Having a small amount of edema in my legs, ankles and feet as well as ascities in my stomach does not help either. Sometimes you just have to walk it off or just deal with the pain till it goes away. We all have bad days, but the good days are more frequent and the other thing is that the cramping does go away at some time. Imagine if we cramped all the time. The worst are the toe curls. Boy! they can be painful. Recently my muscles under my ribs stick when putting on my sneakers or tying them and it is very painful because of the fluid retention I have had lately.
