News India Live, Digital Desk: Has it ever happened to you that you are sleeping deeply and suddenly a sharp pain or stretch in the vein of the foot (which we also call ‘vein’ or ‘banta aana’), wake you up? This is a pain that can make you restless for a few seconds to several minutes.
If this happens to you occasionally, it is not a matter of concern, but if you are often troubled by this problem at night, it is not right to ignore it. This can be a sign of your body that it needs a little more care of you. Let us know why this happens and what we can do to avoid it.
Why is there cramps in the feet at night?
There is no major disease behind it, it is not necessary. Often some of our small habits of our day are the reason:
- Lack of water: By not drinking as much water that the body needs throughout the day, muscle cramps start.
- nutritional deficiencies: In the body, the veins start to pull even when there is a lack of essential minerals like potassium, magnesium and calcium.
- Excess fatigue: The muscles at night also swell at night by walking too much, standing, standing or exercising excessively throughout the day.
- Living in the same position: Sitting or standing in the same way for a long time also affects blood circulation, which can cause cramps.
5 easy ways to avoid this:
- What to do when there is pain: Whatever foot muscle cramps are taking place, try to straighten it comfortably and pull the claws towards you. Massaging that place with light hands also provides immediate relief.
- Water, water and bus water: This is the most important rule. Drink at least 8-10 glasses of water throughout the day. If you exercise or live more in summer, drink even more water.
- Change food and drink: Include potassium and magnesium rich in your diet. Eating things like banana, sweet potato, spinach, almonds, yogurt and beans is very beneficial in this problem.
- Light stretching before bedtime: Take just 5 minutes before going to bed every night and do a light stretching exercise of your feet. This relaxes muscles and reduces the risk of night cramps.
- Hot water compressed: If you often have this problem, it can also be very beneficial to compress with warm water before going to bed at night or sinking your feet in lukewarm water for some time.
By adopting this small and easy remedy, you can get rid of this painful cramps happening at night and make your sleep even more comfortable.
