Would you describe it as being like a charley horse?
Did you perchance try gentle—progressing toward vigorus—massage?

Just speculating in hopes of a clue.... I'm thinking it could be something like a leftover/phantom pain from what you used to experience due to the muscles & nerves being used to that pain stimulation, and recreating it now that it's gone—kind of like neuromuscular "withdrawal" (maybe not the right term/word for it).

It may also be myofascial in nature/origin.

Not being able to feel it ourselves, the best we can do is guess.

Hope you find a remedy/solution,and hopefully it will diminish as you heal.
