What are nightly muscle cramps
-
By nocturnal muscle cramps we mean sudden muscle contractions. A sharp pain is felt, usually localized in the foot or calf. Typically, as the name suggests, they mainly occur at night. The spasmodic symptoms occur acutely and last from a few seconds to a few minutes. The pain will disappear by itself, but can be experienced as particularly unpleasant and can also negatively affect sleep.
Restless legs
-
Restless legs are often confused with nocturnal muscle cramps, but the main difference is that restless legs are painless. They mainly occur at rest and especially at night and can disturb sleep considerably. The patient has an unpleasant tingling sensation in the legs, which only disappears by moving the legs.

However, for them the muscle cramps will usually decrease quickly after childbirth and disappear completely.
