Is the pain in my leg serious?!


Question: Is the pain in my leg serious.?
Whenever I sleep, I usually wake up in the middle of the night because my leg feels like it's exploding, or being hit. Then when I wake up and walk around, it hurts so bad, as if I am straining it. I told my family but they all say that I am just saying this because I want attention, or because I just want to get out of school, or they say it is a cramp. It's NOT a cramp, this hurts much, much more. I have gym tomorrow and I must run cross-country and I don't think I can, it really does hurt but no one believes me!
I have not been kicked or hit my leg recently, either.. Can someone explain what it is.?.?Health Question & Answer


Answers:
Sounds like a charlie-horse, basically a painful spasm of a muscle. How old are you.? Do you think you're going through a growth spurt.? When I was in middle school I woke up a ton throughout the night because of charlie-horses. I'd stand and try to walk around the house as much as I could to make the pain go away.

Tomorrow when you go to gym, if it starts to hurt like you describe let them know, they wont let you leave then just leave and go to the nurses office. You can't really get in trouble for going to the nurses office, that's just stupid. If it continues though you should see a doctor.

Good luck!Health Question & Answer
