Charlie horses

This month the day prior to my period starting I had the WORST Charlie horses in my legs and groin area. 3 days in and my legs are still really sore and sharp pains every now and then. I've never had leg pain before and it hurts to even walk for long periods. Is this normal?

  1. Hi . We are not medical experts, but that doesn't sound normal to me. Do you think you might have inflammation somewhere that is putting pressure on nerves, causing the spasms? Have you tried drinks that contain electrolytes to see if they make an impact? I would definitely put a call in to your doctors office and ask to be evaluated. Let me know what you find out, if you don't mind. Thinking of you. - Lori (Team Member)
