What Causes Severe Muscle Spasms In The Right Hamstring?

About once a month a get a severe Charlie horse in my right hamstring. This usually occurs while I am turning over in bed, but also just sitting and eating dinner. I drink lots of water, stretch daily and am very active. Any ideas on how to prevent the cramps?

Hello and welcome to Ask A Doctor services.
I have read your query and here is my advise.

* The usual remedies are being already practiced as plenty of liquids,
stretching and activity by you.

Additional thing you can do is to maintain zinc, vitamin E and magnesium levels with diet and supportive pills if required.

Thank you.
