Charlie Horses

[bertine]

Last night I kept waking up with Charlie Horses which I forgot about until I just went to stand up and got one in my right calf.

Anyways, I know I could look it up but I wonder how a cramp in your calf became known as a Charlie Horse.

I read that too but the first part "thigh hen" and stuff has too do with something other than cramps. It is an injury of the leg somehow. I don't think I have that.


Yeah, I agree with the weirdness of the term. I am totally ok with you doing my research for me. :)
