My feet keeps stiffing up everytime i wake in the morning. My legs stiff up too.Sometimes can be painful.Anyone had this problem?
 
I guess Levonian never has this problem!
 
Steve,
I get them too and they suck LOL. I don't know whats worse, the foot or the leg muscle. What I hate is when I'm just waking up and I know its about to happen but there isn't anything you can do. I rush to start massaging before it sets in LOL. I don't get them that often but when I do, sheesh.
 
Thanks reba . I wonder does type 2 diebetes has anything to do with this. And Reba you agree with eatting bananas?
 
Eating bananas does help! There is vitamins that will help.

Ask your doctor about that. You might have poor circulation in your legs.

And Reba you agree with eatting bananas?
Yes, I have heard that the potassium in the bananas is good for leg cramps. Sometimes my hubby has low potassium and the doctor told him eat more bananas.
 
I just ate a banana. You better be right. Im gonna be pissed if i wake up with a charlie horse.

Hey, don't blame me. I'm not a doctor, and I don't even play one on TV.
 
Most people have experienced that, And I have too. Different things can cause a muscle pull, When waking up in the morning and you sudden stretch, your muscles pulled and becomes tight and it is painful. I never heard about eating banana helps that something new to me. LOL! Thanks FlyFree :hug:

Start massaging in while it is tight and it seems to work, but still "ouch" it does hurt.

diet pepsi is dehydrating your muscles, which makes it constract. Water should help....
