Multiple causes: exercise overuse, magnesium, potassium or calcium deficiency, lack of sleep, stress, tension, anxiety/depression- for starters. Try a good multivitamin with 250- 400mg of magnesium and 600mg of calcium- available in all drugstores OTC.

Muscle: Sounds like a muscle spasm. Did you have any injury? I think it is best for you to see your doctor for evaluation and a good history report from you
