Paraplegics: Do you have muscle spasms in your legs? How do you treat them?

So many things can effect whether or not you have a spasm some days could be worse or better than others sometimes it isnt caused by anything but other time it could be to do with your feet not being comfortable in your shoes, or an area of you body not comfortable it all depends, but there are a few things you can do to help it sometimes, when you are maybe in a swimming pool or bath you should try doing leg exercises in there it helps your legs to relax. Also while having a spasm taking deep breaths also helps :)

when i was pregnant, i had lots of those cramps too. my doctor said i need to take in more calcium. i don't know why bec. the hurting is not in the bones but it worked! you also have to put your feet a little higher, try pillows under your legs. your tired legs are telling you they are overused! or don't bathe until after at least an hour after strenuous activity. give your muscles time to rest. and yes, doo some stretching too. and by the way, when you're having it, point your toes to your head it will make the pain go away in an instant. the more you let the pain you allow yourself to have, the longer you would still feel it during the day.

You just mentioned the problem in your question. Your leg muscles no longer have any use but you continue to stimulate them, so they try to find an outlet.
