When the muscle involuntarily contracts, a muscle spasm is formed. There are many
different types of muscle spasms. Commonly they occur in skeletal muscle and are the
result of an injury, overworked muscles or dehydration.
A muscle spasm can be quite painful, with the muscle feeling as though it is clenching
tightly. Spasms may be caused by stress, medication, over-exercise, or other factors.
They are treated with physical therapy, chiropractic manipulation and stretching/exercise.
