How does a cramp occur in our body?explain it with the help of a reaction

Answer 1

Muscle cramping is a common problem encountered by athletes and nonathletes alike. Defined as painful involuntary skeletal muscle contractions, cramps may be categorized as either nonexercise related or exercise related. The etiology of the former group may involve hormonal, electrolyte or metabolic imbalances, or it may result from long-term medication. Diagnostic medical testing may be required if cramps are a persistent problem. Exercise-related muscle cramps (ERMC) are much more common. They typically affect the large muscles of the legs during or immediately after exercise and last for seconds to a few minutes. These are typically benign but result in intense pain and may not seem innocuous at the time.
