What's that word for 'I got a cramp in my calf last night so bad that I couldn't straighten my leg and so long that it aches even now'?

Do you want the word that you SAY when that happens or the word for what it is? *wry*

I THINK the word is charleyhorse..

Although when it happens, it's typically shit! Fuck! Damn! OW! ;)
