My issue is my hands. 18years of construction has left me with aosteo arthritis in my hands ( thumbs are completely bone on bone now) and pinched nerves because of the joint issues.. the hand cramps I get lock me up from elbow to finger tip multiple times a day in both hands. Longest hand cramp i've had lasted 1.5 hours of torture.
Magnesium helps reduce the amount of times I get cramped ( went from 10-15 hand cramps a day to 1 or two daily).
The best thing I have found for overall relief of pain is heat. I now use the paraffin wax heat treatment 2-3 times daily to keep the joints in check....
Hand cramps suck. They hit you at really inopportune times and they flipping hurt. Anyone who has had a foot cramp knows how much those hurt...imagine them in your hands/ forearms...
