A muscle spasm is an involuntary contraction of the muscle that can be chronic and painful. There can be numerous types of muscle spasms as well as reasons for them. Some muscle spasm occurs after a trauma to an area, while still others have no discernible cause.
Many physicians believe that the spasm is your body's way of protecting itself from further injury and generally occurs early after an injury.
What are the symptoms of Muscle Spasm?
A muscle spasm can feel like a tightening and clenching in the muscles in the area. It can be painful, but this isn't always the case. If left untreated, a muscle spasm can turn into a muscle knot. These knots are significantly more painful than the original spasm and can be hard to get rid of. Usually this happens about two weeks after the initial injury. Unfortunately, some people do not seek help for a muscle a spam until it has already become a knot.
Some people use exercises or muscle relaxers in conjunction with pain medication to treat muscle a spasms, but this method is often time consumptive, and the pain killers and muscle relaxers can have side effects, like drowsiness, that interfere with everyday activities.
What causes a Muscle Spasm?
Muscle spasms occur when abnormal activity in the muscle triggers involuntary muscle contractions. The contractions occur when electrical signals to the brain affect nerve cells called motor neurons, which are located in the spinal cord. This will cause the muscle to tighten, pulling just enough to cause a rotation of one of the many spinal bones. A pinched nerve often results and causes severe, excruciating pain. A muscle spasm also keeps the muscle continuously "on" making it have to work all the time. Because the muscle is overworked, it can create a knot. Prompt medical treatment helps reduce the risk of muscle knots forming. Spasm can occur with just about any injury to the muscles.
Muscle cramps and spasms may involve part or all of a muscle or and most commonly occur in the hamstrings and quadriceps, feet, hands and the calf muscles.
