Oh My… Cramp

Oh My… Cramp is horrible at the best of times but when you suddenly get it in your leg in the middle of sex it makes things even more awkward.

Leg cramps happen when a muscle suddenly shortens and becomes tight (spasms).

They can be very painful and make it hard for you to move. The cramps can last from a few seconds to 10 minutes.

They can affect the:

– calf muscle, below the knee at the back of the leg

– muscles in the feet or the thighs (less often)

So what do you do? Well as we all know cramp comes on suddenly and can be excruciating, so politely saying ‘excuse me I need to move’ isn’t really an option. It’s more like ‘Ow ow ow, CRAMP!’ and leap into the air.

Other persons reaction

– ‘oh my god are you okay, you poor thing‘

– ‘wtf are you doing? just carry on, it will go away. oh come on please I was enjoying that‘

– *pisses themselves laughing*

After all the commotion, you’ve just got to wait it out. There’s not a lot you can do to get rid of cramp besides stretching your legs, massaging them and walking it off. Pain relief can be used to ease muscle tenderness afterwards.
