In medical parlance, a charley horse is a prickly contusion of the quadriceps muscle of the anterior thigh that commonly results in a muscular hematoma and sometimes several weeks of dull pain and disability.

Cramps are unpleasant, often stinging sensations caused by contraction or overshortening, usually of muscles. Cramps can be cause by cold or overexertion.

Nocturnal leg cramps are involuntary muscle contractions that occur surrounded by the calves, soles of the feet or other muscles within the body during the night or (less commonly) while resting. The duration of nocturnal leg cramps is notably variable next to cramps sometimes only permanent a few seconds and other times several minutes. Soreness in the muscles may remain for some time after the cramp ends. These cramps are more adjectives in elder populations but may happen to anyone. They can surface quite frequently contained by teenagers and in some cases while exercising at hours of darkness. Nocturnal leg cramps can be very uncomfortable especially if dehydrated.
