Drinking water and all don't help with mine. They always come when I'm sleeping thankfully I wake up before they get to bad and am able to walk them off.

It happens to me while Im trying to sleep.. I ususlly move my foot with my hands bc you cant move it yourself ..slowly so its not so painful and then when I regain my foot control I massage the back calf musscle. Seems to work for me..5mins and Im back to sleep.

Drink more water and eat food high in potassium.I had a terrible charlie horse one morning and decided to walk it off. Bad idea! My leg hurt for a good 3-4 days afterwards!
