HORRIBLE cramps won't go away!?!


Question: HORRIBLE cramps won't go away!.?
I took 6 midol today, used my heating pad for an hour, tried fluids, chocolate, and my cramps are KILLING me. I had to struggle to get to my computer which is only a step and a half from my bed.
I have to play sports all day tomorrow so i need something that will work by tomorrow if possible. The sooner the better, i'm toppling over in pain here.

Answers:
I feel your pain. Literally. Right now I'm having the same problem. Went to bed at 2am and I've been up since 4am with these. Took two 375mg of Naproxen and nothing touched it. Usually it does. Then I took my heating pad to it. I haven't had them this bad in a while. Like, I seriously want to throw up it's so bad. So the only thing I can suggest is to soak in a hot bath until you feel relaxed. It's worked in the past. also, drink warm liquids (mostly teas avoiding sugar and sodium). The colder the liquid, the harder your muscles will contract, so I'd avoid those. And maybe do a few sit-ups. It sucks, but I've heard and experienced exercise takes the pain away from menstrual cramps. Hope yours go away! I'm going to soak in the tub...Health Question & Answer

walk it out!!!! Try walking with your hands on your head, I know it sounds weird, but that's what I do when I get cramps while i'm riding my horse, and it helps! also, try relaxing in a hot bath and if you have any oil for muscle relaxation put that on. Don't overdose on the midol haha, drink water VERY SLOWLY!!!!!!! Seriously, don't chug it, drink like a teaspoon per minute. Be careful if u do decide to do sports tomorrow bc ur body needs rest and is trying to tell u something. Drink some herbal tea with lemon and maybe some ginger (even if u don't like it) as it will help, and make sure the bath water is HOT!!! also try laying w/ a hot water bottle on your stomach. Good Luck! If this fails, google search some ideas. Health Question & Answer
