I drink extra milk.
But I am not sure that that remedy works for absolutely everyone.

Have you tried curling your toes back upwards? That helps, it stretches the muscles back out.. In me, it's not eating enough salt, but there are loads of things that could be causing it.

I know I'm being a baby but I'm sitting here with horrible cramp on the top of my foot. I've never suffered from cramp before but over the last year i'v been plagued by it. Always in the same foot. Why? How to stop it? Ouch ouch ouch
