Today, I had my first swim practice in a while and usually after not swimming for a while I'll get cramps. But today I got the worst cramp I've ever had, it was right in my lower leg, my leg instantly curled up and I had to wait out for a bit. It was still hurting though and still hurts now hours later.
Solutions, what could be wrong?
 
A severe leg cramp can cause the muscle to be sore for several days after. Same day - I wouldn't give it a second thought - totally normal.
 
It won't hurt. Also, are you drinking enough fluiRAB? Low fluid consuption can also be the cause of leg cramps. You also need to keep up on your potassium. Watermelon, bananas, melons are all high in potassium.
