Dealing with bad cramps?
in Women's Health ·
Matthew James7 said:I can handle the cramps if they hit me during the day, but when they strike in the middle of the night... that’s when it truly becomes unbearable. What’s most bizarre is that it isn't just stomach pain; my legs ache too. My sister used to laugh at me, wondering how leg pain could even be related, but lately, she’s been feeling the same thing. It’s incredibly frustrating because I can't find any peace—I'm constantly shifting around just to try and soothe the ache in my legs. Last night was particularly brutal; I spent the entire day yesterday feeling completely out of sorts after being hit mid-sleep.
Usually, I take a combination of Tylenol, Advil, and Buscopan. A pharmacist at the local CVS suggested that specific mix.😁 Though, it takes quite a while to actually kick in; personally, I still find Ketorolac to be the most effective.
But reading through everyone else's experiences... I suppose my best bet is just honey and milk.😲
YEAH, same here, especially in my thighs, it feels like every single muscle is just seizing up at once... it's absolute hell.
