Leg and foot cramps are involuntary contractions of muscles that can occur suddenly and cause discomfort. Common causes include dehydration, electrolyte imbalances, prolonged sitting or standing, and overexertion during physical activity. Stretching the affected muscle, staying hydrated, and ensuring adequate intake of minerals like potassium and magnesium can help alleviate and prevent cramps. If cramps are frequent or severe, it may be advisable to consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation.
