      Muscle cramps are unexpected, automatic contractions that happen in several muscles. These contractions are often extremely painful and can affect many muscle groups.
      Normally affected muscles include those in the back of your lower leg, the back of your thigh, and the front of your thigh.
      You may also experience cramps in your:

    • feet
    • hands
    • arms
    • abdominal wall

      • The severe pain of a cramp can awaken you at bedtime or make it painful to walk.
      A sudden, extreme pain, lasting from a few seconds to 20 minutes, is the most common symptom of a muscle cramp. In some cases, a bulging lump of muscle tissue beneath the skin can accompany a cramp as well.
