​Hello,

I think the senses below of "seize" might fit the bill:

[intransitive] (North American English)
(also seize up British and North American English)
if a machine seizes, it no longer works because the parts are stuck and cannot move
​(North American English)

(also seize up British and North American English)
if a part of your body seizes, you are unable to move it easily and it is often painful.

Best,
