You can get muscle spasms after heavy lifting or exercise. Muscle spasms can also be a sign of tetanus. Other signs include stiff muscles in the jaw/neck/stomach, difficulty swallowing, sweating and fever. Tetanus can kill and is complicated to treat so go to a clinic STRAIGHT AWAY if you think you have it. Only a trained health worker can give you correct diagnosis and treatment.
