A member asked:
I get charlie horses i was wondering is it normal or common for them to occur once a week?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Normal?: That is not normal and would most of the time occur due to a pinched nerve in your lower back. Try to avoid bending down and picking heavy objects. Avoid prolonged sitting, bending while seated etc. Walking and swimming are best exercises for your back.
