Cramp is an involuntary, sudden and painful contraction of a muscle due to localized muscle spasm generally affecting the hands and legs. There are a variety of reasons for the occurrence of a cramp such as mineral deficiency, severe cold, lack of sufficient flow of blood and the accumulation of certain chemicals in that area.
Massage and external compression of the muscle involved can relieve cramp but all cramps cannot be so relieved.
