What Causes Muscle Spasms While Bending Over?
Question: not really sure what is going on I am having cramps upper side areas when I bend over.
Brief Answer:
Can be an electrolyte imbalance
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
Muscle cramps most of the time occur for no known reason, and they're harmless.
Sometimes, it can be due to dehydration, muscle fatigue or electrolyte abnormalities. It is better to drink sufficient fluid and also see that your intake of electrolytes (sodium, potassium, magnesium ) is sufficient. You can drink Oralyte for this. Doing a hot compress will also help.
I hope this answers your query.
In case you have additional questions or doubts, you can forward them to me, and I shall be glad to help you out.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
