Brief Answer:
Excessive stretching can cause spasm.
Detailed Answer:
Excessive exercise or stretching can cause such a spasm. It can be due to low Vitamin D3 levels or electrolyte imbalance. A minor tear can also cause such spasm. The physiotherapy needs to be continued for 3 weeks for proper healing and then continued to maintain the strength of the muscles.
