Lots of stuff: Could be a pulled muscle. A cramp... If it only lasts a few seconds and doesn't hurt when you walk and there is no swelling- I wouldn't worry about it. Otherwise see your doctor for an exam.

Muscle spasm : Usually is a muscle spasm but it is appearing at the same location might have a local cause. If you are on cholesterol lowering meds make sure you take CoQ10 (Qunol brand is more soluble)
