Leg muscle pain may occur due to many different reasons. The most common here is a muscle cramp. This is usually a sudden and intense lower leg pain – commonly known as ‘charley horse.’

You experience this pain because of heat, muscle fatigue, or dehydration. It is, therefore, more common in older people, but endurance athletes who may not be that well-conditioned may also end up facing this leg muscle pain.

The best way to ease your pain is to massage your lower leg or simply stretch it for some time – you may also consider applying cold packs to tender muscles or heat to tight muscles for relief.
