Default Leg/foot cramps

Over in the Feminine Forum there's a topic called Restless Legs where Susan & Tom gave a great tip for leg cramps!!!

I'm prone to getting foot cramps; I suspect it's because I don't drink enough water or perhaps don't get enough potassium in my diet? The cramps come usually when I'm lying in bed or even sometimes when asleep or when I extend the muscles of my foot - sometimes mild cramps and sometimes very painful.

Anyway, Susan & Tom gave the tip to bite your lower lip and the cramp will subside. Last night I had a mild cramp in my foot.......... bit my lower lip ....... and in a few seconds the cramp stopped ! I'll have to try it on a more severe leg cramp, next time it happens!!!

THANKS FOR TIP Susan or was it Tom ?

Any other information on leg/foot cramps?
