Hi, Thanks for your query. After going through your suffering, it seems you have developed muscle spasm (cramp). The cramps are caused by hyper excitability of the nerves that stimulate the muscles.  A simple way to prevent cramp is-1. Warm up and stretch your calf muscles before running stretch your calf muscle before going to field 3-4 times and each time holding for 10-15 seconds. 2. Talk to qualified trainer for proper running form and footwear.3. You may run in a heel-toe pattern and avoid letting the balls of your feet hit the ground first.4. Stay properly HY Chat Doctor.  Taking a multivitamin can also help do hope that you have found something helpful, and I will be glad to answer any further query. Take care
