As : As with most pain conditions, there can be a variety of potential problems that can cause the pain that you are describing. It is difficult to diagnose with the short description given and without a proper physical examination. Muscle spasms occur for a variety of reasons ranging from nerve problems to metabolic problems to vascular problems and more. If the pain does not improve, you should see someone who is qualified to make an appropriate diagnosis. As always, i would highly suggest you do your research when seeking medical help. Find a physician who meets, or even better, exceeds the basic qualifications to practice in their specific field or sub-specialty.
