You may need to stretch the calves and eat foods that contain potassium and drink more daily water. Strengthening the foot is also a good idea with squats, lunges, and calf raises. Use shoes with better padding and learn about proper gait when you walk or run. Massage can greatly help the foot cramps also. Cramping means that the muscle is either one or more of the following: weak, tight, malnourished, poor posture, genetics, scar tissue, or exposed to the cold (i.e. cold swimming pools).

The calf contains muscles considered to bee foot muscles....
Muscles can have knots (trigger points) that make them tight which in turn put pressure on nerves and other things causing pain.
Molasses - a couple of swigs or Bananas 1 or 2 - both contain magnesium and potassium for muscles.
Try working with the principles taught in The Trigger Point Therapy Workbook by Davies.
I use a chiropractor and massage therapist with it

your foot cramps could be caused by low potassium levels. you could try to eat more foods high in potassium, such as bananas, broccoli, ect. If that doesn't work you should check with your doctor to see if there is anything else you can do.

It might be arthritis. You might not be able to control it with over the counter medication. Consult your doctor. That is why my foot pains were.
