    Do you get muscle cramps or spasms? What causes yours to occur? What has been the best treatment for relieving muscle cramps or spasms?

    I know I get them when I have dehydration, strenuous movement, or lack of muscle use. For instant relief in the middle of the night, I massage and stretch. I also will eat a pickle or drink pickle juice because the juice is a high electrolyte concentration.

    I suffer greatly from muscle pain as well as cramps in my legs (I have LGMD as well as CMT2) sometimes as Charlie horses going from my hips to my toes lasting hours. One thing I use to reduce this is making mineral oil with jajoba (as a carrier oil) an add essential oils like Oregeno, frankincense, myrrh etc… and also apply DMSO 1st to increase the absorption & effectiveness.
