Charlie Horse in Leg..

Very painful. How to make it go away.

Pain med, massage, heat, exercise it easy.

There are some cramp stuff over accounted.

Stand on it.

Also make sure you're hydrating frequently with plain ol' water.

the water is in the living room 20 steps away but the pain is so excruciating I can't get it so perhaps this is something else.

Somebody else said that there's just last for a half hour this is been going on for two hours does anybody ever have charlie horses that can last and be sore for longer than 2 hours?

You mean "over the counter" (OTC).

🤗 cyber hugs!

Ain't really nothing you can do about Charley horses but just sit tight till it go away on its own. That's what I do. I take it you overweight. We overweight folks suffer from this more often.

I'm trying to decipher is this a pulled muscle or a charley horse how long does it take for a charlie horse to go away and how soon can you walk after you get one because it's been 3 hours and I still can't walk.

It could be a potassium deficiency. If you don't tend to drink a lot of water, you should definitely start. Charley horses can last for minutes and up to a day.
