When a muscle spasm occurs, rest the afflicted area, apply warm compresses, drink plenty of water, and stretch gently once the pain subsides. Short-term medications like muscle relaxants or painkillers may be helpful if necessary, but if spasms are severe, frequent, or accompanied by weakness, consult a physician.
