A spasm is a sudden involuntary contraction of a muscle, a group of muscles, or a hollow organ such as the heart.

A muscle cramp is usually harmless and ceases after a few minutes. It is typically caused by ion imbalance or muscle overload. A muscle [[spasm]] is a sudden, involuntary contraction of one or more muscles. A spasm results from an abnormally sustained muscle contraction and is often painful.
