A member asked:
My husband awakens with thigh cramps at night, how can he get relief?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Bananas: Try having him eat a banana a day, which will improve his potassium levels - low potassium can lead to muscle cramps. Simple stretching prior to bed may help. If symptoms persist, he should be evaluated to have labs checked and possibly further testing.
