Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Sir or madam, if you had exercised too much without warm up for few days then usually muscle spasms are common. You need to start yourself with light exercises first and then intensify it. For now you can use Baclofen which is muscle relaxers and can be prescribed by any practitioner near you for all the muscle spasms. Kindly reduce your exercise training and then increase slowly.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
