Accepted Answer

Not yet: Muscle twitching for two days in a middle age male is very likely related to isolated overuse of a local muscle group. Warm soaks, calcium supplements or foods, and rest will likely accompany resolution.  Continuance after a week or so, worsening, or occurrence of other symptoms might suggest a doctor visit.
