I'll try and stretch out my leg. What is the best position for it would you say? Just strait out while sitting (putting it on a stool or something?)
I'm already drinking plenty of liquids I think. I got a gallon travel jug of water (or kool-ade) that I take a few swigs from whenever I'm in the kitchen (Which is about every hour or so).

I know medical bills are a pain, but this possible cause should be ruled out by a doctor. |
Well considering that this happened right after some physical activity I think it can be traced to the muscles in my leg. While do sit for a while and am overweight (but losing and relatively healthy) I'm not really immobile, I'm always getting up and just walking around for one reason or another. I'm kind of ruling this out but I'll keep it in mind if this contiues with out improvement.
I was improving a lot (almost to the point of normalcy) until last Monday when I walked around a lot the two days before and the pain came back.
I’m applying this blue pain reliving jell that helps a little and using a heating pad which I read increases blood flow to the area along with some rapid deep breathing exersizes that is supposed increase oxygenation.
I've read that Potassium and Calcium can help with muscle cramps. This true? I’m going to look for some vitamins with them at the store today.
