From what cramps and what problems they may indicate, in the broadcast channel “Russia 1” said cardiovascular surgeon, phlebologist, PhD, an expert on innovative methods of treatment of varicose disease Eugene he.
According to the doctor, seizures can be in perfectly healthy people, for example, while swimming in cold water. Also seizures may indicate the presence of diseases.
