The warm trick- heat will relax muscles and dilate blood vessels, this usually helps. CAUTION don't burn yourself with whatever you use!!
Painkillers. Your doctor or pharmacist should be able to help.
Gentle exercise. I know its the last thing you can want to do, but it is really good.
Raspberry leaf tablets- these also dilate cramping vessels and have less side effects than most conventional medication.
