worst time ever to get a charlie horse

[Selkie]

I get that sometimes if I move my leg in a certain way. But I don't think it's a charlie horse. Just a painful nerve or muscle contraction.

I associate charlie horses with that pain when you work out the legs strenuously, like riding a bike up a hill or something.

If I stretch my arm a certain way it happens SOMETIMES.

[Oh]

YEAH SAME HERE
I just stretch my feet around too much and I always go too far. Oh god what a horrible feeling.

Same here. 

[YPrrrr]

I always get them in the arch of my foot (inorite  ) when I'm masturbating

Oh that happens to me when I'm laying down a certain way... it feels like there's something moving around in there, but I guess it's just a cramp. Actually when I get them in my calves, it's always when I'm laying down too...

I get muscle spasms in my toes a couple times a week. Don't think they really count as charlie horses though.

It's because your muscles are attempting to relax and if they happen to extend in a way that some other muscles don't like you get a problem. 

The muscle spasms I get in my feet are strong enough to turn my second toe completely under my big toe and separate it from the rest of my toes. It's SO painful and lasts like 5-15 minutes. :\
