(See also Introduction to Symptoms of Brain, Spinal Cord, and Nerve Disorders.) A cramp is a sudden, brief, unintended (involuntary), and usually painful contraction of a muscle or group of muscles. Muscle cramps can be a symptom of nervous system dysfunction.
Causes of Muscle Cramps. Muscle cramps have several causes. Some cramps result from overuse of your muscles. This typically occurs while you are exercising. Muscle injuries and dehydration can also trigger cramps. Dehydration is the excessive loss of fluids in the body. Low levels of calcium and potassium may also cause muscle cramps, since both minerals contribute to healthy muscle function. Low blood supply to your legs and feet can cause cramping in those areas when you exercise, walk, or participate in physical activities.
