reflex caused by trauma; clonic or tonic
clonic
involuntary muscle contraction by alernate contraction and relazation-spasm (contract then realease, contract then release)
tonic
constant contraction- cramp (seconds to minutes, charley horse)
stiffness
not painful, muscles worked hard and fluid that collect in the muscles afterward disperse at a slow rate, muscle swollen, shortser, thicker, move around to prevent and treat
