What Is The Treatment For Severe Muscle Cramps In Rib Cage?
I get severe muscle cramps in my rib cage. I can feel the muscle move and I can hardly stand it!!!! I take vitamins, gatoraide, and drink water. When the cramps occur, I eat 2 Tbl of mustard, and drink water until it goes away --in about 5 min. I sometimes get them in my calf and thighs also. I started getting them about 20 years ago, and they are getting more frequent.
HI, I DiD review your problem Your muscle cramps can be due to multiple reasons. I would advice you to get evaluated by a neurologist for any muscle related problem. Sometimes enzyme deficiencies and occasionally electrolyte defects can cause such problems. There are tests available to rule out and diagnose these problems and also treatment available for some. You can drink coconut water and eat some bananas daily as they have potassium which can sometimes suppress these cramps. I hope this helps Wish you a healthy life ahead
