A cramp pain typically lasts a few minutes. In some cases, it lasts just seconds, but in some cases it lasts up to 10 minutes. The severity of the pain varies. The muscle may remain tender for up to 24 hours after a leg cramp. Leg cramps usually occur when you are resting - most commonly at night when in bed.
Causes
Common causes of skeletal muscle cramps include muscle fatigue, heavy exercise, low sodium, and low potassium. Smooth muscle cramps may be due to menstruation or gastroenteritis.
