How do you get rid of a "charley horse" in your calf muscle?

Muscle cramps "Charley horses" are generally caused by dehydration or low potassium levels. It could also mean that you could have a back problem, if it is persistent.

Apply heat, massage your leg, walk around to circulate your blood, eat foods rich in potassium (such as bananas) and rehydrate your body with fluids. Good luck!

A Charlie Horse is usually associated with a lack of potassium. Eating at least 1 banana a day should help or large portions of potatoes.

When I get a charlie horse I usually flex my foot up and extend my leg. That usually helps subside it. I've tried this at the start of a charlie horse and it helps prevent it from happening. Get lots of sleep and rest as well(if you can ;D )

The only thing that's worked for me is to immediately stand up and start walking around. I get them from stretching my legs in bed.

stretch your leg straight out and massage along the muscle.

Extend your leg, massage, stand on it for starters.

stretch your leg out and pull your toes to you

I have never heard this expression before. Not sure what it means. Is it like "pins and needles?"

cut off your leg
