In a survey conducted by NoLegCramps.com, we asked participants how confident they were in the leg cramp advice provided by various resources.  Here’s what they said on a scale of 1 (least) to 5 (most):

#1: Doctor:   4.30

#2: Website where many leg cramp sufferers advise what worked for themselves:  3.63

#3: Friend or family member who also experiences/experienced leg cramps: 3.56

It’s  not surprising to see Doctors come up as the #1 choice.  Leg Cramps are surprisingly complex – they are pervasive, linked to many different maladies, and medications, and have similarities to other conditions.

But as we have discussed with our recent discussion -  3 people to ask for help when you have leg cramps  – most people simply won’t get any advice at all, no matter how much they trust it.

NoLegCramps.com is here as a complementary resource —plus we have no waiting room.
