LIFE HACK: THE MIDNIGHT LEG CRAMP FIX
Ever wake up in the middle of the night with a calf cramp so bad you think your leg is trying to kill you?
HERE'S THE FIX!
Straighten your leg, grab your toes, and gently pull them back toward your shin. That stretches the cramped muscle and can help it relax.
If you can stand, put your foot flat on the floor and gently press your heel down.
And whatever you do, DON'T POINT YOUR TOES! That can make the cramp worse.
Now you can get back to sleep without fighting your own leg!
