experience only mild discomfort during their period |

Muscle
Cramps
(of Skeletal Muscles) |
A muscle cramp is an involuntarily
and forcibly contracted muscle that does not relax. When we use the muscles
that can be controlled voluntarily, such as those of our arms and legs,
they alternately contract and relax as we move our limbs. Muscles that
support our head, neck, and trunk contract similarly in a synchronized
fashion to maintain our posture. A muscle (or even a few fibers of a muscle)
that involuntarily (without consciously willing it) contracts is in a "spasm."
If the spasm is forceful and sustained, it becomes a cramp. Muscle cramps
cause a visible or palpable hardening of the involved muscle. |

Cramp
Wikipedia |
Cramps are unpleasant, often
painful sensations caused by muscle contraction or overshortening. The
common causes of skeletal muscle cramps are muscle fatigue and a sodium
imbalance. Smooth muscle cramps may be due to menstruation or Gastroenteritis. |
