Cramps?: Sounds like cramps. You may need some labs to make sure your electrolytes are normal and also check for any underlying medical conditions. In the mean time, as long as you don't have a chronic disease that requires fluid restriction, increase your fluid intake with non-caffeinated and non-sugary drinks. Also fruits and vegetables rich in potassium such as banana might help. See your PCP.

Question 10

what should you do if you think you have plantar fasciitis. i have very severe pain in my foot?

Accepted Answer

Keep heels elevated: Plantar fasciitis is caused by strain on the attachment  to the heel bone(calcaneus). Going barefoot, even only @ night, or wearing any flat shoes, ie., flip flops, sandals, bedroom shoes, etc., can keep enough strain on the plantar fascia to make it hurt.  Rest the plantar fascia by wearing a small heeled shoe with all weight bearing.
