Has anyone ever pulled something while they were sleeping. How serious is this. I fucked my shoulder up sleeping last night! Dude?)

Well, I do and don't understand the question. Anyone can get a problems in the sleep, in order to pull a muscle it needs to be overexerted in activity. Being that it is a shoulder problem and happening in your sleep it can be a strain. From being held in a certain position for extened time. At this time yes it is serious because like anyother strained muscle it needs to be taken care of.

I used to wake up in the middle of the night with pulled calves muscles... my calves were TIGHT, hurt like a bitch... eventually they went away.... havent had one in a long time.

What's up with that calves tightening thing. I get that too, especially in the winter time. It hurts pretty bad, you feel like putting a hole in the wall from the pain and screaming "f#$k!!!".

i dont know man... but the best way to relieve the pain is to stretch out your calves.. try to make your toes touch your shins... obviously not possible but you know what I mean... at first, it hurts even more, but the pain goes away really fast....

When I was 13 I was at a pool party and I pulled both my calves muscles in the deep end... I almost drown!

i used to be a competative swimmer and i had the same thing happen to me during practice. if my best friend hadnt seen me i would have drowned. ever since that time i have gotten them every month or so, i dont know what causes them but the are a lot of pain, esp when they wake you up in the middle of the night. i also get a lot of bad cramps when i am on AS. i drink a lot of water but i still get really bad muscle cramps. i hope it gets worked out for you soon bro

Thanks for the responses. I did chest last night with only slight pain. I am not certain what happened but it scared the piss out of me. I was trying to turn over and it popped. Dude

The same thing happened to me a few years ago. I went to bed, and the next morning, I had this aching pain in my left shouder. So I went to the doctor few days later and he gave me some pain killers. It went away after a couple of weeks.

i've had this happen as well,i think it might of been a lack of potassium

the potassium does seem to help
