Note- DD is under the care of a pediatrician and rheumatologist, I'm not seeking medical advice.
DD is a 9 year old training level 6/7 and lately she's been complaining of muscle cramps at home. They seem to be worse on her days off and they're happening all over, so it's not an specific injury. This morning she's had painful cramps in her thigh, calf (on her other leg), and shoulder. She also gets them regularly in her upper back and glutes. I've been having her stretch out the cramp while it's happening, and she's drinking lots of water and Gatorade, but I thought I'd see if anyone had any advice for her to help.
